Description

Wind and weather all the way – the “weather route” can also be combined with the “wind turbine route” and a trip to the wind turbine with viewing platform in Lichtenegg. If you want to learn more about the weather, you should visit the weather trail in Hollenthon.

Directions
Start of the route at Inn Posch. Head towards the end of the village, then turn left towards Spratzeck at the fork in the road. Go straight on here, follow the signposted route, pass through Rotte Spratzeck and then turn left at the next junction. Then there is another junction, this time turn right. A short distance along the road, turn right at the first opportunity; from here, the road leads through the forest/along the edge of the forest. You will then come to the district of Gleichenbach, through the village and turn right at the crossroads, out of the village and then continue straight on. After a long left-hand bend you will come to the Obereck district, keep left there at the crossroads.  The route continues, always straight ahead, a little way along the Spratzbach stream. When you reach the district of Blumau, you will see a large sawmill; turn left there. Straight on until you reach the intersection from which you came before, turn left and this time go straight on. Keep straight until you come to a fork, keep right there and return to the village of Hollenthon.

The route is marked with signs “Wetterroute Nr. 4” in yellow.

Connecting path to the “Rosengarten route”.
