    Eine sehr schöne Tour wenn auch das letzte Stück auf Asphalt sehr anstrengend ist, toller Aufstieg zu Rosseggerhütte oben der Grad heute teilweise im Nebel was bei den Windrädern dann doch sehr seltsam ist, wenn man sie hört aber nicht sieht. Der Zeitaufwand ist weit niedriger selbst die angegebenen Zeiten liegen drunter kann das ein Eingabefehler sein? Ich war reine gehzeit etwas über 5 h unterwegs

    Wir sind die Tour gestern mit Schneeschuhen gegangen bei herrlich sonnigem Wetter. Der Weg war grossteils verspurt, damit war die Anstrengung klein und der Genuss gross. Auch die Kaarlhütte war offen und hat uns mit Hausmannskost reichlich verwöhnt. Die Tour ist zwar technisch nicht anspruchsvoll, trotzdem kamen wir von Bahnhof Mürzzuschlag bis Bahnhof Langenwang auf insgesamt 6 Stunden reine Gehzeit. Danke vielmals für den Tipp.

    Nette Tour mit Gipfel und Möglichkeit zum Einkehren. Achtung: Der GPS-Track passt nicht mit der Beschreibung zusammen und die Anreise-Navigation mit Google Maps schlägt fehl, da die Straßen weiter oben so anscheinend nicht kartiert sind. Der bessere Startpunkt ist weiter unten, Parkplätze gibt es beim Sportplatz zwischen Mur und Bahnstrecke.

    Interessant, das mit dem Fahrrad - Verbotsschild! Diese Straße ist nämlich eine Mautstraße zum Rossegerhaus, auf der auch Autos fahren dürfen! Vermutlich bist du vom Pretulweg abgezweigt und auf dem Waldpfad abgefahren. Aus meiner Sicht keine schöne Abfahrt - zu viele Wurzeln, hohe Pfadstufen usw.. Ich fahre über den Pretulweg ab - macht aus meiner Sicht mehr Spaß. Aber jedem das Seine und je nach Können natürlich auch!
