Circular route to the Rottenmanner Teich
This family hike leads over the Ranten-Bichl to the Rottenmanner lake and further along the Rantenbach back to the starting point.
This romantic pond is a gem between Ranten and Schöder. The church tower in the lake offers an extraordinary photo opportunity, especially since the majestic Greim can be seen in the background. A great excursion destination but also a photo opportunity in the Murau region.
The hike itself requires some fitness and endurance - but not too much!
