Turn-by-turn directions
From the protestant church in Weißbriach we walk towards Hermagor, always following the signs Stoffelbauerweg. We continue along the forest path to St. Lorenzen/ G. The forest path leads onto an asphalt road just below the Catholic church of St. Lorenzen/ G. We turn right onto this and walk through the village to the Gösseringbrücke. After the bridge we turn right and walk along the Gössering back to Weißbriach. To get back to the starting point, the protestant church of Weißbriach, we have to cross the Schwarzenbach and the Gössering after the company Holzbau Hubmann with the help of two wooden footbridges.
