Description

This leisurely loop in Prigglitz takes us past the Way of the Cross Chapel and the Pottschacher Huts. The Maagraben cave is also on the route.

Equipment Always take suitable maps, sun and rain protection as well as water and a snack with you.
Route description The starting point of our route is in Prigglitz at the elementary school. Then we set off southeast along the Stuppachgraben. We finally turn left into the forest and follow the path. This later meets the Güteweg Pfarra, which we take eastward. We come to Saloderhof and then ride northward again into the greenery. When we leave the forest, we find ourselves at Wegscheidehof, which we pass until we reach Gasteil. Now the route leads us south to the Kreuzweg chapel. From there, we want to continue northward again and follow the path. Slightly below the Pottschacher Hut, our route makes a left turn. We pass the Maagraben Cave. At Langtal, we keep to the east. Our route ends again in Prigglitz.
