Closed

The Fegenberg Circular Route (Energy Mile) is accessible year-round and is a popular hike for all age groups.

We hike on well-cleared paths as well as municipal roads through a beautiful winter landscape, enjoying the lovely views.

This popular circular route takes us along a 7.3 km marked path to Fegenberg, where there is an alpaca enclosure with an attached farm shop. We then continue via Fölz and return to the starting point. Wrapped up warmly, we enjoy the deeply snow-covered winter landscape.
