Description

From the spa to Dornegg only forest paths, then a short, little used municipal road with a beautiful panoramic view over the district of Stein and the Kögelberg area. Through the Rehgraben only forest and meadow path, up towards Hartbergen to the viewing terrace on the roof of the VINO.TAKE. Beautiful panoramic view of the Styrian hills, western Styria and to the east into Burgenland and Hungary.

Directions

Start is in front of the spa left direction Hotel Stoiser and vis á vis into the forest, from where many trails begin. Here you follow the signs in the forest for about 2 km. In the field of vision you always have the municipal road towards Unterlamm. Then follows a short stretch of road accompanied by vineyards with a beautiful view to the right into the Rehgraben and Hartbergen and to the left to Stein and on the Kögelberg. Then it goes back into the forest and downhill into the Rehgraben. Here you cross the asphalt road and walk on a meadow path first flat into the Rehwinkel and then over serpentines towards Hartbergen. There you cross the Thermenstraße and then reach the viewing terrace on the roof of the VINO.TAKE. Afterwards, the trail goes off the road and over the "Krafthügel" back to the spa.

Equipment
Proper backpack packing makes many things easier: Pack heavy things first. The water bottle should always be within reach in a side pocket. All the things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top. An emergency kit, including blister plasters, belongs in every rucksack and it is always advisable to dress in layers.

Tips when reporting an emergency – Answer these six WH questions: What happened? How many people are injured? Where did the accident happen (are there GPS coordinates)? Who is reporting the incident (callback number)? When did the accident happen? What is the weather like at the site of the incident?
