    Ein sehr schöne Etappe! (Wenn man mal der Start bergauf auf Asphalt außer acht lässt.) Wunderschöne Waldpassagen, einladende Helfenbergerhütte, motivierender "Halber Weg" Stein, andächtiges Denkmal "Eiserner Vorhang", beeindruckender Windradpark, aussichtsreiche Sternsteinwarte und historischer Ortskern Bad Leonfelden. (Hinweis: Ab der Waldschänke am Sternstein stimmen die GPS Daten bis kurz vor Bad Leonfelden nicht überein. Vom Ersteller wurde vermutlich ein Wegweiser übersehen und er ist der Straße entlang. Ist aber nicht weiter tragisch...)
