Panoramic tour Großlobming
The municipality Lobmingtal has about 1800 inhabitants and exists in this form since the merging of Kleinlobming and Großlobming in 2015 and bears the common municipality name Lobmingtal as of 1.1.2016. With the panoramic loop you get to know the village of Großlobming, which is located about 5 km southwest of the city of Knittelfeld, very well. The hike starts in the center of the village and leads through the Sulzbachgraben, where the first knights "von Lobming" lived in the middle of the 12th century. During the hike along the Sulzbachgraben, you will come to a memorial site that commemorates the tragic accident in 1972, when 3 people died in a helicopter crash. Starting from the Sulzbachgraben, you hike across beautiful, well-kept pastures and come to the highest point of the hike, the "Murtalblick-Bankerl". From here you have a wonderful view of Großlobming and the Judenburg-Knittelfeld basin. The view invites you to linger, as it stretches from the Wölzer Tauern to the Seckauer Alps.
