    Sehr schöne Runde. Die Abfahrt zur und ab Ruine Schrattenstein ist eher knackig, viele lose, tlw. kopfgroße Steine. Ein Abstecher zur einsam gelegenen Ruine ist sehr zu empfehlen, sensationelle Aussicht.

    Wichtig! Wanderung unbedingt von Willendorf Richtung Puchberg, also nach Westen, wegen unvergleichlich besserer Ausblicke. Den uninteressanten Wegabschnitt über das Füllenhalskreuz kann man sich sparen, also direkt von der Talwiese weiter zum "Am Obersberg" bzw. umgekehrt.
