    This small half-day route starts at Spital am Pyhrn railway station. You circle the Wurberg on the "Great Wurkogel Route".

    Author’s recommendation

    The summit of the Wurberg (847 m) can be easily climbed as part of this circular route. However, it is important to note that the wildlife feeding area north of the summit must not be entered (hunting restricted area).

    Safety information

    A very easy hike that anyone can manage.

    Roadbook

    We start the hike directly at Spital am Pyhrn railway station and walk a short distance on the asphalt road towards the Pyhrn federal highway.

    At the company "Dach Wieser," a meadow path branches off to the right (yellow signposts). We follow this to the forest edge (where the local archery club has its training ground, so do not leave the path!) and a little further to another crossroads.

    Now we keep right and walk very flat on a comfortable path along the Wurberg until we come out of the forest and reach another crossroads.

    Now straight ahead towards the settlement "Am Wur." Continue down on the asphalt road into the valley floor and on the path that runs below the railway line back to Spital am Pyhrn railway station.
