Mistlegg-Runde in St. Kathrein/Offenegg

Open
From the town center of St. Kathrein in the Almenland Nature Park in Styria, via the "Karlwirt" back up to Mistlegg and in a loop over the Oberlammbacher back to the town.

A short hike with a few ascents and descents, the route is also ideal for families who will certainly appreciate the wide range of leisure activities on offer at the "Karlwirt". Mistlegg is a wooded district of St. Kathrein and offers a direct view of the town center. Mushroom hunters in particular will have a lot of fun here.

  • Cross the Kathreiner Landesstraße in front of the inn and continue along the “Mistlegg-Weg” (meadow and a long forest) to “Oberlammbacher”
  • At the "Oberlammbacher" you then go steeply up to the left, first you reach the "Abzugkapelle", which was built as a thank you for being spared from the raids of the Turks (tip: let Karl Eder tell you the whole story!)
  • Now it's the last stretch up back to the town center

Anyone who stops by the “Karlwirt” should stop in for delicious fresh or smoked trout from the Lambach just behind the house!
