A nice circular route through the Leithagebirge. On the meadow "to the beautiful hunter" there was supposedly a forester's/hunting lodge in the past, of which only some concrete slabs remain.
This route is also often ridden with the mountain bike, but only part of it is approved as an MTB route (the "Bäckersteig route")
