- Description
-
A wonderful hike from Graz city centre to the Schöckl. We leave the "city area" at Hilmteich and hike along Leechwald to Mariatrost. Here we cross the Mariatrostertal valley and continue to Fölling.
There we turn towards Niederschöckl, the weather tower in Weinitzen shows us the way. From there we go uphill to Rinnegg, where we follow the provincial road to Mühlgraben.
Following the forest path there to St. Radegund, we recharge our batteries for the ascent of the Schöckl.
