Hundsberg-Runde, Passail

Once around the town center of Passail in the Almenland Nature Park and once around the Hundsberg - a simple "eight" that is run exclusively on asphalt.
The Hundsberg is the first elevation in the south of Passail. This round takes you along Wiedenbergstrasse and Unterpirchastrasse around this hill with its beautiful views. Back in the local area, we walk around the market square back to the starting point.

A very easy running route except for the climb up to the Hundsberg.

Many thanks to Ali Möstl for providing the track!
