Description:
The circular hike starts in the centre at the town square. The route leads along Kreuznerstraße Road to the turnoff for Breitenangerstraße Road. Walk down this road and then cross the state road. Here, continue following Breitenangerstraße Road to the right into "Kaiserpromenade" footpath. Through the forest to the "Witches`Rock". Continue along Breitenanger agricultural road to "Schacherbauer" farm and past Lahnhofer farm to Groißgraben agricultural road, follow this to the next fork to the left, then up Herdmann agricultural road to Binderalm Inn. From there, continue for a short bit through woodlands heading back down to the centre again.

Tip:
The "Witches`Rocks" are worth a short stop. These are raised hides on rocks, of which legend has it that witches once met here on special occasions to dance. Binderalm Inn beckons to put in a nice break with beautiful views of Grein.
