Tagestour Übelbach - Zitoll

Starting at the old market in Übelbach, walk up Kalvarienbergstrasse, turn off to the left and walk through the forest up towards the Listkogel mountain. The sign-posted trail no. 534 is crossed a few times by the forest road. At the top, go past the shrine and the former Hubertushof inn, bearing left after the garages, and continue westwards towards the Plotscherbauer hut. From there, continue on trail no. 11 to the Gmoa-Alm pasture and then on trail no. 532 to the Ebenwirt inn on Schenkenberg mountain. Continue on trail no. 533 over the Haneggkogel and Reising mountains to the Sieglkreuz cross and the Poidlwirt inn. The Zitoll S-Bahn (S11) stop is about 1.5 hours of walking from here.

If you are doing this hike in the opposite direction (from Zitoll), why not spend the night in the charming Plotscherbauer hut (reservation is required)?

Hikers can easily arrive without a car by using bus or train services. The frequent S1 trains between Graz and Bruck/Mur make reaching OberGraz easy. From Peggau–Deutschfeistritz railway station, take the S11 train or the GUSTmobil minivan to Übelbach.
