    The trail is a half-day hike and leads past the rustic Knsuperhäuschen, uphill - downhill through picturesque Joglland. There are refreshment stops right in the village or at the Bratlalm (closed on Mon & Tue).
    There are many impressive points and wonderful views along the way.

    Author’s recommendation

    We recommend a visit to the sea buckthorn gardens and a wood-fired roast at the Bratlalm!

    Roadbook

    • We start at the village square and turn right at the Pestsäule, after the Hotel Fast, and follow the markings (also trail no. 7 and Kraftpfad) to the "Tarbauer", then left past a "Waldhäuschen", a short steep section and we can really relax and recharge our batteries while "forest bathing"
    • Recovered, we reach the sea buckthorn fields via a wonderful field path
    • After the "Atelier Kroisleitner", we cross the road and come to another short section of forest (or turn left along the road and immediately take the next right)
    • Now we follow the asphalt road, past a few farms (path no. 7 and Kraftpfad branches off to the right at "Hans im Winkl", we continue straight ahead), until we leave the road on the right after the house Auer "Hansl im Graben"
    • A forest path/woodland trail continues to the "Antoni Taferl" - immediately afterwards we take the left-hand bend - until shortly before the "Reitbauer" (Kleinland). Now we walk along meadow and forest paths through the "Kleinwald" and "Auf der Halt"
    • Continue - towards the village - past the "Schwingesbauer", "Poschn" to the "Poschn Brücke" bridge
    • Now turn right again up into the forest to the "Bratlam"
    • The wood-fired roast, which of course we don't miss - but let it melt in our mouths, is well deserved
    • After refreshments (including a schnapps from Edenbauer), we cover the last few meters of the hike and arrive at our destination, back at the village square

    A few tips on correct and fair behaviour in the forest: (Source: www.bundesforste.at )

    Hikers should avoid visits to the forest about 1.5 hours before sunrise and after sunset, as wild animals are particularly active during this time.

    Plastic bottles, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts etc. have no place in the forest! Please make sure that you do not leave any rubbish in the forest.

    Camping and lighting fires are strictly forbidden in the forest!

    In principle, every person is allowed to pick 2 kg of mushrooms and berries per day for personal use. It is only prohibited if the forest owner expressly forbids it.

    • Small rucksack with water bottle (+ provisions)
    • Sturdy shoes
    • Appropriate clothing - if possible several layers - "onion principle".
    • Rain and sun protectionWalking sticks as required
    • Mobile phone
    • Small first aid kit
    • Route description
    • Before starting the hike, check the possibilities for refreshments, including opening times, or pack appropriate food and drink.
