description: Take the R4 hiking trail (connecting trail) from Labach-Pferdeeisenbahnwanderweg to Grottentalwanderweg R5. Turn left at the small Labach stream, where after 100 metres of meadow hiking trail you can immerse yourself in a beautiful, airy wooded area. This part of the horse-drawn railway trail is very natural and mostly runs alongside the Jaunitz river.
