At the Steineck guesthouse, you cross the street and the Gaflenzbach and walk along the promenade past the Katzenstein mill to the Enns River.
On the Enns bike route R7, you always walk along the Enns towards Großraming, passing the train station until you reach the Enns bridge. We cross the bridge, keep right, and change the side of the street at the pedestrian crossing. From here, we walk up the sidewalk into the town center of Großraming.
From the church square in Großraming, the path leads a short way west down to the round bridge and continues via the Menweg E65 to the Gschoad (Gscheid 782 m) below Schieferstein. Sporty, experienced hikers can make a detour from Gschoad to the Steinernen Jäger (1,185 m). Via the hiking trail E72a, you return to the Sebaldusweg. From Gschoad, the path leads via hiking trail E72 b into the Stiedelsbach, past the nail smithy to the Petermühle guesthouse and further to Losenstein.
