Bad Gleichenberg (Eichgraben Weg) - Bschaidkogel (via Mühlsteinbruch)

Access to starting point:
We drive to Gornja Radgona, from where we drive into Austria. Through Radgona / Bad Radkersburg we follow the signs for the highway, and after the settlement Halbenrain we turn right in the direction of the town Vrbna / Feldbach. When we get to the settlement Bad Gleichenberg after the car wash Eurowash, we turn right on the road Badstraße, and then we also drive on Ringstraße, Bernreither Straße, Steinriegelstraße, and here we turn left on Eichgraben Weg. On the mentioned path we drive a few 100 m more and then we park on the parking lot at the edge of the forest.

Route description:
From the parking lot, we head onto a marked footpath that ascends through the forest, and at the very beginning on the left side we bypass a smaller recreation park. There follows an ascent through the forest, where the path leads us past numerous informative-educational boards, and at the junctions we follow the blazes of path no. 13.
Higher up, the path splits, and we choose the right path, alongside which there are signs for Gleichenberg Dorf (straight Alte Wasserstelle), along which we continue ascending through the forest. A little further, the path splits once again, and this time we continue left in the direction of Mühlsteinbruch and Enzianhütte.
There follows only a shorter ascent and past the lookout tower we arrive at the cross on Mühlsteinbruch, the hut Enzianhütte is located a little further ahead.
Behind the hut Enzianhütte we return to path no. 13 and follow it to the left, a little higher we reach a forest road, which we just cross (left Gleichenberg Dorf and Gleichenberger Kogel, right Pichla).
There follows a light to moderate ascent along an unmarked path that leads us along an indistinct forested ridge. Higher up, at a small junction we go right and in a few 10 steps we ascend to an indistinct summit.
Starting point - Mühlsteinbruch 0:35, Mühlsteinbruch - summit 0:15.
