You now start your round directly at the Bad Gams spa park. With the adjacent playground, the park is ideal for your warm-up exercises. As soon as you are well warmed up, you can start your lap. The running route leads you in a westerly direction at the beginning, past the public indoor swimming pool Kipper. Keep to the right for the time being and run through Müllegg.
