Merkendorf round 1 (Merkendorf-Runde 1)

Open
Fancy an easy walking or running route in Bad Gleichenberg? Then the Merkendorfrunde 1 is the right choice! This is a simple running route with 2.5 km which is very flat. Excellent for returning runners and beginners.
This loop takes you around the Grünwald in Steinbach. It starts at the Gutmann chapel along the Grünwaldweg, past the Ulbl cross in the direction of the village chapel and back to the starting point. The route is relatively flat, asphalted throughout and little used. Possibility of extension by connecting to the Merkendorf-Runde 2.
