Nickelberg hike

This is a moderately difficult hiking tour, but promises fantastic views!
This route offers a view of St. Peter am Kammersberg from above. You hike mostly off the busy main road, through the forest in serpentines to the viewpoint. This means you can really enjoy the nature of the Murau region.
