RAABAU Berry Trail: Hiking for young and old in Feldbach (RAABAU Beerenweg)

We start at the Rüsthaus in Raabau opposite the Gsöls self-service store selling regional products. We can now always orient ourselves by the signs of the Kopfspur and hike along meadows and field paths past the Kaufmann fruit farm and the Raabauer Eisvogel, where we can treat ourselves to regional products. We continue along various berry gardens into a beautiful forest until we finally reach Lödersdorf. Here the "head track" of the "hiking trail network on the tracks of the volcanoes" ends and we walk along the platform at the train station in the direction of Feldbach and turn left to join the R11 bike path. We follow the R11 back to Raabau.
