- Description
-
The Messererrunde starts in Bad Hall in the direction of Waldneukirchen, where you ride up the steep Kirchbühel to the country road. The route continues along the Mayhof estate road to Grünburg. Here you have a beautiful view of the river Steyr and the picturesque village of Steinbach. After a steep descent, you pass a small power station, which used to be the center of knifemakers and other craftsmen.
Continue cycling on the former railroad road next to the Steyr , at the Haunoldmühle, across the river. A little uphill and you reach Steinbach. The village is known for a variety of soft development concepts - not for nothing is in the revitalized Old Parsonage a "sustainability forge"!
Continue through beautiful hillside forests above the Steyr and along the bike path back to Bad Hall.
