alpannonia circular trail - recharge your batteries, St. Jakob im Walde

The 2-3 day tour leads from St. Jakob im Walde via Mönichwald and Vorau back to the starting point. Here you hike on various Alpannonia feeders, the main trail and many a theme trail.
With the alpannonia circular trail in the Joglland - Waldheimat region in eastern Styria, various feeders of the long-distance hiking trail can be connected. This creates a beautiful tour with numerous highlights, such as the fantastic view at the Rabl-Kreuz-Hütte or the unique Vorau Abbey. On different feeder paths you hike on the tracks of the alpannonia long-distance hiking trail and thus offer an optimal way for everyone who is looking for a 2-3 day tour.

From St. Jakob im Walde to the Rabl-Kreuz hut and on to Mönichwald and Vorau, follow the yellow alpannonia marking (feeder trail). From Vorau you hike on the Barbara-Sicharter path to Wenigzell. You then reach the starting point in St. Jakob im Walde via the so-called Kraftpfad.
