The loop leads from Passail in the Almenland Nature Park out to the district of Hart. Always on side roads or sidewalks, the Hart loop is a leisurely jogging or walking route.
The Hart-Runde is an offer for all runners who don't necessarily want to run uphill and also enjoy running on asphalt. Starting from the center of Passail, you run past the leisure center in the direction of Fladnitz. Shortly before the "Postwirt", turn left and run past the golf course to the chapel in Hart, which also marks the turning point. Partly through the forest, the route leads back towards Passail, the starting point "Mittelschule" is then reached again via a loop around the cemetery.
An easy running route, which is also a nice walk for the whole family.
Many thanks to Ali Möstl for providing the track!
