Together, routes 4 and 4A cover 96 kilometers and 1114 meters of elevation gain. However, the exertion is compensated by the most beautiful panoramas the district has to offer. It is no coincidence that the area around St. Wolfgang, i.e., the southeastern district, is called the "Tuscany of Upper Bavaria."

A scenic highlight. A mix of tar, forest, and gravel roads without technical difficulties. Many beautiful viewpoints. It goes along the Isen and the Sollacher Forest. Wonderful view when climbing from Watzling to Pausenberg over the Isental to Dorfen!!! After that, please be careful, the route has changed. Drive straight over the motorway, then you will get back on the designated route (do not turn right before the motorway, as it no longer continues there!!!).
Many opportunities to stop for refreshments.
It should be dry because some paths get muddy otherwise.
