Moarhofhechtl-Runde, Passail
A short but idyllic loop out to the Moarhofhechtl and past the fishing ponds. The Moarhofhechtl circuit in Passail in the Almenland Nature Park is also a nice walk.
The path first leads along the
Raab before the small climb leads up to the "
Moarhofhechtl". Along meadows and fields it goes out to Auen. The return route then leads along the fish ponds back to the town center
An easy round and a nice walk, partly on dirt paths.
Many thanks to Ali Möstl for providing the track!
