Description
From the village, the trail leads north-east past the rainwater retention basin and traditional square farms. The trail continues over a small stream in a wood and back to the L 6204 country road. Crossing this, the route continues eastwards to Kicking. The route now heads uphill in a southerly direction between meadows and fields via Wiesenreith to Rotte Sand. From here you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Sonntagberg and the dreamy Ybbstal valley. The trail now leads in a south-westerly direction to the Adersdorf junction. This is where paths 381 and 382 separate.
Trail 381 leads with a magnificent view over the Mostviertel to the Danube and the Mühlviertel, continuing on the L 6209, past the legendary Galgenhügel hill to the "Adersdorfer Chapel". From here, take the Biberbacher pilgrims' path to the Sonntagberg (also marked as Mostviertel circular hiking trail no. 454) and continue in a north-westerly direction via the "Bichl-Schachen" farm track through the forest. The route now leads downhill and follows the road over a small bridge back to the L 6204 country road. Now the way back to Biberbach is not far away.
