    From the publicly well-connected parking lot Gießhübl, the trail can be run or hiked in both directions.

    The loop doesn't have many elevation meters and is varied and quiet...

    Author’s recommendation

    You can visit a small chapel along the way.

    I am very happy about questions, reviews, or your own photos of the route.

    In the hut "Genussverliebt" directly at the Kuhheide parking lot, you can refresh yourself before or after the route; the outdoor area is a very nice place with a wonderful view in good weather.

    Roadbook

    From the parking lot, we start via the Kuhheide towards the Hans Nemecek Hut. Shortly after, we skim the Hochstrasse and follow the forest road to the junction into the Wassergspreng on hiking trail 04. After the climbing rocks in the Wassergspreng, we turn left towards Eichberg. The path now gently ascends to the Gießhübler running loop 1. We then turn left and shortly arrive at the chapel. After 600 m, we return to the parking lot.
