Pilgrim walks in Eferding

Welcome to the Weg des Buches, the Protestant theme route! Follow the traces of Bible smugglers and secret Protestants. Experience hidden history.

From the unique Schlögener View we hike past the Zeller Monument and two historical castle ruins into the Eferding Basin and visit the gravesite of the peasant war leaders.

From Eferding, it goes through the vegetable landscape to the Peasants' War Monument Emlinger Holz, to the "Predigtstuhl" in the scenic landscape of Scharten and to Wallern/Trattnach.

After starting at the Shalom Franciscan Monastery Pupping, the stage initially follows a section of the Aschach to the Danube and then into the town of Eferding, the center of the extensive Danube basin. Through lush vegetable fields, it then goes back to the Danube and to the Cistercian Monastery Wilhering.

The first stage along the Danube starts at Wilhering Monastery and initially follows the Danube Trail along the great river. Later it goes south and really through the vegetable land of the Eferding basin and directly through the town of Eferding. After a short detour to the Danube, you reach the Shalom Franciscan Monastery Pupping.
