Penzendorfweg 4, Penzendorf

The direct route from the Greinbach municipal office in Penzendorf to the Ringwarte and back. The shortest but steepest ascent to the Ringwarte.

The trail leads us from the Greinbach municipal office past the Penzendorf village chapel and via the golf practice area and the Jägerrplatzl directly to the Ringwarte. The descent is via the Ringwald forest to the former Vanicek company (now Mühlböck) back to Penzendorf.
