The trail starts at the "Bäckerbrücke" bridge in the Gosau Hintertal district. The first part of the trail is asphalted and therefore easy to walk on, even in rainy weather. On the **seven kilometre long trail** you will always have the opportunity to take a break and have a cup of coffee and cake. Running and Nordic Walking -------------------------- The Gosaubach trail is particularly **suitable for runners and Nordic walkers** who do not want to cover too many metres in altitude. On the almost seven-kilometre-long trail, you cover only about 30 metres in altitude. It is also cleared in winter and can therefore be used all year round.
