A radio facility receives a request, which is made by a first radio station and which is routed by a second radio station to the radio facility, regarding a future sending of a message from the first radio station to a third radio station. In addition, the radio facility sends, to at least one or to each radio station of a path, which extends over one or more radio stations and via which the message can be transmitted from the first radio station to the third radio station by routing it through radio stations of the path, information concerning the radio station adjacent to the respective radio station of the path along said path in the direction of the third radio station and, optionally, also information concerning radio resources to be used in the event of a routing of the message through the respective radio station of the path. A radio facility and a radio station carry out said method.
