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.
