Open
Medium-difficulty tour through St. Margarethen in the Krumeckgraben via the Wetterkreuz down into the Fötschachgraben in the Murtal adventure region in Styria.
This scenic tour leads from the Wipfelwanderweg parking lot in the Murtal region in Styria, from junction 67 twice left downhill to the Rachau - Glein junction to cycle junction 68. After the bus stop, the route climbs slightly to the right past beautiful alpine meadows to the village of Glein, where you will also find Mrs. Eva Tragner's herb store. At the bridge, the tour leads uphill to the left and continues over the Fötschachgraben, on the right-hand side you can see the lovely Berger Kircherl before it leads back to the country road. Now turn left towards cycle junction 69 to St. Lorenzen, where you can stop for a bite to eat at Landgasthof Friedl, Restaurant & Gästehaus Seiger with its beautiful terrace or the Café Gruber bakery. The Gruber sports store with its own bike workshop with a large range of bike accessories and spare parts is also located directly in St. Lorenzen. The tour continues at a leisurely pace to St. Margarethen to cycle junction 68, where you turn left and head back towards Glein-Rachau. At cycle junction 67, turn right twice and continue uphill for a short distance to the starting point of the Wipfelwanderweg trail.
