This short stage leads from the Church of St James in Altmelon in the Waldvietel into the hilly Mühlviertel. The change in landscape can be recognised above all by the many granite stones that can be found in the forests. The stage ends in the small village of Haid, which belongs to the municipality of Königswiesen. The market town of Königswiesen (Freistadt district) has the necessary infrastructure (e.g. the Karlingerhaus for overnight accommodation).
