Mandling Trail

A fairly easy hiking tour along the Enns and Mandling rivers connecting the villages of Gleiming, Mandling and the Mandling reservoir.
This is a quite easy hike along the rivers Enns and Mandling that leads you along the water, over fields and through the narrow cut of "Mandlinggraben" up to the water reservoir. Further on the hike you reach a nice plateau where "Mandlberggut" is situated. The distillery is well-known for its high-quality Schnaps and "Rock-Whisky". The last part of the hike again runs along the river Enns back to Gleiming.
