The trail is located in a charming landscape with views of the nearby Gemeindealpe and the mighty Ötscher. From the trail entrance opposite the valley station of the Gemeindealpe ski area, you reach the slightly ascending Erlauf trail.
The trail leads along streams and large fields in a circular route back to the starting point. A wonderful view of the Gemeindealpe and the Ötscher accompany those hungry for exercise along the way. Via the connecting trail, about halfway along the Erlaufloipe, you continue to the approx. 8 km long World Championship trail to St. Sebastian.
You can rent a complete set of cross-country skiing equipment (cross-country skis, boots, and poles) at the Gemeindealpe ski rental shop, located right at the valley station of the Mitterbach Mountain Railways.
Always follow the trail!
