From the largest habitable Gesamtkunstwerk, designed by the artist and architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser, we head north to the small village of Schwarzmannshofen. Here we take a leisurely walk along the Safenbach stream to the geomantic stone. We turn right and cross the state road.
At the next crossing we turn left along fields until we reach the village of Speilbrunn after crossing the railroad line. In the center of the village we have to decide if we want to visit the forest grotto "Maria Brunn" in Speilbrunn. To the right we continue along the "Speilbrunnerweg" on our tour. Here we take a short rest at the bench at the end of Speilbrunn before the ascent.
Afterwards we overcome the ascent. At the top we can turn left and visit the Buschenschank Kober (note opening times, as it is not open all year round) and taste the excellent wines and the Styrian snack. Thus strengthened, we continue in the direction of Kleinsteinbach. Here the bike rolls downhill without much effort. In Kleinsteinbach at the first intersection to the left and then to the right, here we have the thermal baths Rogner Bad Blumau again in the field of vision and go straight along a side path and then turn right to the spa parking = starting point.
