Hike around the Liechtensteinberg

From the main square it goes over the Weyergasse - along the Murradweg - to the Weyerplatz. Cross the small bridge and continue in the direction of Feebergstraße. At the intersection with the Bergweg follow hiking trail 25 to the "Wastl am Eck". Over well paved gravel road you cross few settlement houses, then it goes along a wide forest road. The trail markings can be seen well from the crossing cow pastures. Several cow pastures have to be crossed until you reach Wastl am Eck. In the back you have a wonderful view of the town of Judenburg, on the right hand you look into the Feeberggraben. With good visibility, the view soon extends to the Seetaler Alps (south-west direction) as well as the Größenberg (south-east direction).

After about an hour you reach "Wastl am Eck", a former snack station. Around this stopover you will find several benches where you can rest and enjoy your own snack.

After "Wastl am Eck" you continue along the wide forest path in the direction of Jahnstein (hiking trail 20), which leads between cow pasture and forest. Shortly before you leave the cow pasture, you have the opportunity to climb a little higher to the left and enjoy a wonderful view of the Aichfeld.

You leave this last cow pasture via a cow gate embedded in the ground.

Continuing along the forest path, you can enjoy wonderful views of the Aichfeld, the Seetaler Alps and the Größenberg alternately to the left and right.

At the next hiking trail junction follow the arrow in the direction of "Wöllmerdorf Judenburg" - hiking trail 25. Follow a well-marked hiking trail downhill through the forest and you will quickly reach the next forest road, which you continue to descend on the right. You are now on the cool shady side of the Liechtensteinberg.

After the forest road follows another short section of a narrow hiking trail through the forest - here we continue to follow hiking trail 25 in the direction of Judenburg. Continue through the forest and along the fields in the direction of Judenburg. Passing small benches, we soon reach a beautiful wayside shrine. From here continue along the marked path in the direction of Ruine Liechtenstein / Wastl am Eck - always follow in the direction of Judenburg. We are always in the direction of Judenburg on the way, keep to the hiking trail 324 and thus quickly reach the Calvary Church. Here you can enjoy an indescribably beautiful view of Judenburg and take another long rest. From the Calvary Church, descend straight on via the stations of the cross along the Purbachweg. This is the quickest way back to Weyerplatz.

From here it's a short climb again and we're already back in the center of Judenburg.
