Trail head:
Somewhere on the middle of the road to Hiaslegg Gasthaus
Biking to the trail head: 19 km, 380 m of elevation gain
Weather condition: Partly sunny, warm, but not too hot. Some cloud passages.
Food, water supply: 2 Clif bars, 1 energy bar, around 2 lt of water + some water source in the end of the tour, after Leobner Mauer. No garranty that there will be water on the way. In the worst case the Leobner Hütte can be visited.
Although I did a VK on the day before on the trail leading to Gösseck, my condition for this run was good. I was able to get to Edelweissboden basically without a break. On Edelweissboden the trail is easy to run and very beautiful. After that on the way to Hochturm it becomes more technical, with rocky passages. Until the summit there is no chance of getting lost. After Hochturm one basically continues towards east. The trail leads to a saddle from where one should turn left towards Leobner Mauer. From the summit until the forest road is also a bit technical but not hard to run. As one reaches the forest road it leads directly to Hiaslegg road.
