Our hike begins at the marketplace in Maria Laach. We follow the main street towards Zeißing, shortly after turn right and see the famous Gothic pilgrimage church on our right. Passing the cemetery, we leave the village and walk gently downhill through a Christmas tree plantation to the country road. After crossing the Klafterbach and the country road, we go uphill to the Litzendorfer Kreuzstöckerl. Shortly after, we reach the hamlet of Litzendorf, where we turn left and follow the main street through the village. Through blooming fields, our path leads in a wide arc over the Jauerling plateau. At the fork in the road, we keep diagonally right and walk to the old Schleinkhof farm. Here is also the stamp station of the stage. Then we descend through the forest with hairpin bends towards Aggsbach Markt. Over the so-called Schmuckstraße, we come to the first houses and continue into the village. Just before the railway tracks, we follow the street to the right and now walk towards the picturesque church. Continuing left, parallel to the Endlingbach, we shortly arrive at the marketplace in Aggsbach Markt, where our hike ends.
