On the way to the unmanned Linderhütte on the hiking trail 316/47 you will find an impressive stone field, which is also well suited for photos. Continuing along trail 316, you pass the Linder lake and continue climbing to the Schutzhaus on the Zirbitzkogel. From the Schutzhaus it is only a few meters in altitude to the summit cross, where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the surrounding mountain landscape.
On the hiking trail 320 the descent takes place in an easterly direction to the intersection of trail 46, from where it goes via the Rothaidenhütten on trail 47 back to trail 316 and the starting point. It is recommended to stop again at the Rothaidenhütte and enjoy the beautiful alpine environment. Strengthened it goes back to the starting point.
Fitness is a basic requirement for the hike. But you will be rewarded with wonderful views and a beautiful route.

Dress appropriately for a hike:
Wear weather-appropriate, durable clothing. In any case, the clothing should protect you from possible rain and cold or sun and heat.
Even low mountain ranges often hold meteorological surprises. It is not uncommon, even in June, for a cold snap to occur at higher altitudes.
Sandals, bathing slippers, even sneakers are not the appropriate footwear for a hike.
Use hiking boots with ankle protection. Make sure they have a good tread and grip. After rain showers, it can be very slippery in the forest, even in summer, on roots, leaves and stones - Safety instructions

In order to really enjoy a hike in the Murtal and relax, please note the following points:
Plan your stages according to your condition and ability. Take your time. Organize your energy very well, take enough breaks.
There are very long sections. Not everywhere there are possibilities to stop for refreshments. For a long-distance hiker it goes without saying that he should have enough drinks (and snacks) with him.
Adapt your behavior to the respective conditions, both meteorological and ground conditions. Study the weather forecast daily.
Pay attention to yourself and other hikers. - Tips
