Starting at the traffic circle in Göss, you start the beautiful mountain bike tour.

From here it goes slowly uphill, the route runs from now on mostly on a very well prepared gravel road. Through the dense forest, left and right of the road, it is always pleasantly cool in summer. On the route to the Mugel is also the Stadlmaier Alm, where you can stop for a snack. The middle section consists of partly steeper sections, the last meters up to the summit cross are then somewhat flatter again. Shortly before the summit there are always good opportunities to enjoy the great panorama. Once you reach the summit, treat yourself to a snack at the Mugelschutzhaus before continuing downhill towards Niklasdorf. Here you cycle along the Murradweg R2 back to Leoben.
