Getting There & Away
If you're coming from Salzburgerland, the most pleasant mode of transport is the
Murtal-
bahn
(
www.stlb.at
; return €17)
, a steam train that chugs its way between Tamsweg and Murau
once every Tuesday and Thursday from mid-June to mid-September on a narrow-gauge
line.
Every two hours direct ÖBB trains connect Murau with Tamsweg (€7.80, one hour).
Trains to Leoben (€13.60, 1½ hours, every two hours) require a change in Unzmarkt, also
the junction for trains from Murau to Klagenfurt (€17.20, 2¼ hours, every two hours).
