KM4 - Strajach-Mussen

This beautiful tour runs through a wooded area via the Vom TVB in Kötschach Mauthen. First follow the main road south for about 100 meters and then turn right. Follow the B111 into the Lesach Valley until you reach the village of Strajach. Turn right at the fountain and drive uphill along the narrow asphalt road, which after about 100 meters turns into a gravel path. At an altitude of 1,220 metres above sea level you reach a fork. Here, turn right and continue uphill (on the left you will later descend to St. Jakob) until you reach the car park at 1,485 metres above sea level. From here on driving is prohibited. At the beginning, take the same route, then continue in the direction of St. Jakob and later on the B111 back to the starting point. The tour is also very suitable for E-MTB.

HIGHLIGHT: very nice resting place with fountain at KM 10.9

Suggestion
Do not miss this beautiful tour with the wonderful short hike to the flower paradise Mussen.
