The new Zirben Trail branches off from the Kornock Flotrail near Schafalm to the left. In the first section, you can expect a flowing and fast biking experience. Then it goes into the technical area with various natural obstacles, tight curves, and much more. At the end, it becomes fast and jumpy again, with some long curves.
Above the Zirbenwald boundary, the trail impresses with wonderful views of the Schafalm reservoir pond with the Styrian Nock Mountains and the well-known Eisenhut summit in the background.
