Stage 07 From Glacier to Wine North Route Wörschach - Lassing

From the small idyllically situated village of Wörschach we walk under the main road, turn left and come across the Auweg to the sports field, where we turn left again and then keep right. This way we reach the Enns and the Wörschacher Moos, a Natura 2000 Europe protected area. On this first section the path is also partly identical with the well-known Ennsradweg, which leads from Flachau to Enns. Well developed, it offers cyclists and hikers enough space. Just before the small village of Döllach we leave the Enns and keep to the right to enter the high valley of Lassing. The village of Lassing, which is separated from the Enns valley by the Mitterberg, is far away from the noise of the streets and the hustle and bustle.

This section of the hiking route "From Glacier to Wine" is also identical to the Hemma Pilgrimage Trail, which leads from Admont to Gurk in the footsteps of St. Hemma. With a view of the Mitterberg to the north and the summit of the Hohen Trett to the south, we soon reach the village of Lassing, which is idyllically embedded in the landscape (Tourist Information Tel. +43 664 4122860). Please note that there are only a few accommodations in Lassing and that they are often very booked during the high season between mid-June and mid-September. Therefore, a room booking in advance is recommended!
