The hike continues on the road towards St. Wolfgang. Follow the road Mönchegg, turn right at the parish church St. Wolfgang and follow the road Mönchegg further. At the junction follow the right road Thomanegg Weg. Here it goes slightly downhill to Seetalblick (inn & guesthouse), where you can have a delicious snack and relax while enjoying the view.

The way back leads in a loop on Mönchegg back to the junction. From here you can walk back comfortably.
