Route description:
From the starting point, you head east towards the Stolzalpen roundabout and continue to St. Egidi. In St. Egidi, you'll find the Mur power plant with its fish ladder, which you could visit while you're there. After crossing the Mur bridge, which offers fantastic views of Murau's old town and Murau Castle, you'll pass the Murau Brewery's logistics center.
When you reach the railway crossing, listen out for the whistle of the Murtalbahn train! This local train line is one of the few remaining narrow-gauge railways in Styria, connecting Murau with Unzmarkt and Tamsweg, where you can catch connecting trains for longer journeys. The Murtalbahn's steam excursion train is a popular photo spot and a great day trip for all ages.
You'll continue over the Laßnitzbach stream, past several farms, until you reach the Hintere Probstergraben bridge. Once you arrive in Probst, just follow the country road back towards Murau.
