14.5km circuit with 723m of climbing. The climb to Hiaslberg can be slippery in wet conditions.
Directions:
We start at Großraming station, pass the Rialto pizzeria and, after 100 metres, turn left at the signpost for Hiaslberg. The trail begins on alpine pastures, then climbs steeply through the forest. After 2.5km we come to a signpost that leads us to Hiaslberg, where we are rewarded with a wonderful view of Großraming.
Continue downhill, keeping to the right, until you reach Scharnreith at km 4, on forest tracks and roads. Turn right at the farm and continue uphill on forest roads to Hirner Hof. Here we run down the tarmac road to a junction. Cross over here and follow the road up to Bürscher Hof. Take a steep path to Waldesrand. Here we turn right and walk along the edge of the forest, a signpost 45 E points the way. Then take a footpath through the forest down to Sandluckengraben. Cross a small stream and follow it downhill.
At km 10,4 we come back out onto the sealed road, which takes us out of the valley along the Rodelsbach stream. Keep right along the road until you come back to Großraming.
Tip:
A trip to the Hiaslberg, with its magnificent views of Großraming, is highly recommendable.
Equipment:
The required equipment always depends on the particular tour and the weather conditions. Regarding the food: This is very individual and it is recommended to have rather too much than too little with equipment and food. For a 5km round in the valley you need less than for a demanding tour in the mountains. The weather can change quickly and if you are not constantly on the move or need to take a break, for example, warming clothing is of great importance.
We have a general checklist for you here:
- Weather-appropriate running gear for the season - weather forecast - region - elevation. This includes:
