We start at the restaurant "Agathawirt" in St. Agatha along the old street of the "Pötschenpass" upwards to the top, the so-called "Pötschenhöhe" and passing the border to Styria. On forest roads in direction to "Sarstein" and via the mountain pasture "Höheralm" in direction of the lake "Sommersbergsee". From then on to the alpine garden and downwards to the main road. Pay attention crossing the road due to the high frequent traffic. Then via the area "Lichtersberg" on the taramac road to the street "Rambühelstraße" and upwards to the "Zenzenbühel".
