This easy circular route starts at the Tourist Office in San Leonardo. Crossing the steel bridge (above the bus station), follow the road on the right all the way up to the church. The route then passes the Brühwirt Restaurant leading right up to the primary school buildings. Turn right and take the Happergweg road as far as the Happerg farm at the edge of the forest. Follow the signs to the Andreas-Hofer-Rundweg circuit until Via Gerlos/Gerlosweg road then turn right across the main street and continue to the historic Sandwirt farm, Andreas Hofer’s place of birth and the museum named after him. The route back to San Leonardo follows the Gandellenweg road, under the main road.
