This scenic hike leads from the sunny Nörderberg down to the historic farms of Quadrat and on to Rabland. Thanks to the Aschbach cable car, the ascent is skipped, allowing the tour to start in the charming mountain village of Aschbach at 1,362 metres. Forest paths, traditional cultural landscapes and historical sites make this one of the most enjoyable ways to explore the Nörderberg.

Leisurely downhill hike from Aschbach via the Eggersteig path and Quadrat to Rabland, supported by the cable car and rich in cultural highlights.
