Soleleitungsweg-Runde 1

Mostly flat, easy hike along the oldest pipeline in the world, THE SOLELEITUNG VON HALLSTATT NACH EBENSEE, which has been delivering brine from the salt mine to the salt works since 1607.

The starting point is Rathausplatz, where the town hall and tourist office are located. Follow the main road to the left into the village (preferably on the left-hand side of the road) until you reach the small bridge over the Langbathbach, the so-called "Kaiserbrücke" - cross the bridge and then turn right into Marktgasse - at a crossroads, the Soleweg begins on the left, initially as an access road for the residents - continue straight ahead along the edge of the forest on the Soleleitungsweg to the Plankau district - cross over the "Rudolfsbrücke" bridge to the other side of the Traun, follow the Plankauweg and then continue along the "Traundamm" back to the starting point.
