    Roadbook

    From the starting point Gmoa Arena on paved foot/cycle path initially moderate, then increasingly ascending towards Pass Hallthurm. Turn left ("Wolfschwang, Großgmain") onto a sandy hiking trail and along the slopes of the Untersberg (state border) to Wolfschwang (viewpoint, inn, wildlife enclosure). Follow the hiking trail to the remote settlement Bruchhäusl and keep right on a sandy path through the forest, moderately descending to the Latschenwirt. A small road ("Latschenstraße") leads into the parking lot of the forest inn, initially sandy, then paved through the forest, finally over open meadows to Hinterreit. At a right bend, leave the asphalt road to the left and continue on the meadow path, passing a farmstead, to the settlement area of Hinterreit. Cross Salzburger Straße and follow a street ("Randersberg"). Initially on asphalt, then sandy, the path leads through the quiet forest area of Randersberg to Großgmain. Via Falkenweg you reach Salzburger Straße, which is crossed. Through the loose settlement area of Großgmain, follow Sanatorium and Untersbergstraße, finally the border path to Weißbach. Last on the paved foot/cycle path back to the starting point.
