We start at the restaurant "Agathawirt" in St. Agatha along the old street of the "Pötschenpass" upwards to the top, the so-called "Pötschenhöhe" and passing the border to Styria. On forest roads in direction to "Sarstein" and via the mountain pasture "Höheralm" in direction of the lake "Sommersbergsee". From then on to the alpine garden and downwards to the main road. Pay attention crossing the road due to the high frequent traffic. Then via the area "Lichtersberg" on the taramac road to the street "Rambühelstraße" and upwards to the "Zenzenbühel". From then on follow the graveld road until the castle ruin "Burgruine Pflindsberg". After a quick side trip to the viewpoint the route leads to the road "Waldgrabenstraße" and then right downwards to the area called "Leislinggraben" and back to the starting point of the tour St. Agatha.
