The loop starts at the Plankenau power station, from here it is about 1.5 km along the Tauern Cycle Path along the Salzach towards the town centre. From the Untermarktbrücke bridge, continue into the Adelsberger Promenade. Behind the Waldschwimmbad swimming pool, the climb up the Hahnbaum starts.
Over the next 4 km you will climb approx. 500 m. Beautiful trails, mostly in the forest, so perfect to run even on hot days. The trail leads to the Hahnbaumalm (not managed) and then further up to the Oberhahnbaum, a beautiful plateau, where the trails also become flatter and are super runnable. After about 700 m the highest point is reached. At the large crossroads towards Hochgründeck at km 8, turn right downhill (barrier) back towards Hahnbaum, past the Oberhahnbaum summit cross. After a short asphalt section, the trail turns right again into the forest at km 8.5, where another climb of about 50 m follows. The trail then leads past the Vogei Hütt'n and the Hotel Hahnbaum.
From here, follow the hiking trail towards Kohlbichl down towards the valley. At the mountain station of the T-bar lift, the trial briefly follows the ascent route. At the Großunterberg farm, cross the ski slope and follow the road to the Hetzenbichl inn. In front of the inn, take the path to the left in the direction of Kuhbergrundweg. After crossing the main road, follow the Kuhbergweg in the direction of the town. At the first houses, turn left down the road and follow the road until you reach the district court. At the crossroads, follow the road to the left towards Liechtensteinklamm, after approx. 500m take the road to the left towards Liechtensteinklamm and after another 200m you will reach the starting point.
