alpannonia Rundweg - hoch hinaus, Rettenegg

On this alpannonia circular route you travel to the peaks of the Joglland - Waldheimat region: both part of the Stuhleck and the Pretul are climbed and enchant with breathtaking views.
Starting from the municipality of Rettenegg, you hike on the Planet Trail, which is also an alpannonia feeder to the 1,782 meter high Stuhleck. Along the way there are always images of our planetary system to discover. From the ridge up to Pretul you have a fantastic panoramic view of the Styrian mountains. At 1,656 meters, the Pretul is also one of the highest peaks in the Joglland - Waldheimat region. It's always worth taking a break at the Roseggerhaus. Then the descent back to Rettenegg begins. The signage from Rettenegg to the Stuhleck shows the yellow alpannonia sign or the planetary path signs. On the section to the Pretul follow the red alpannonia markings. A yellow alpannonia marking (feeder road) leads back to Rettenegg.
