Pilgrim walks in Wallersee

We start our hike on the Salzburg Jakobsweg in Oberhofen, a small village between Irrsee and Irrsdorf. On this beautiful stage, we mainly walk on side roads and field paths through a gentle and quiet hilly landscape with a constant view of the fascinating Alpine range to the south. On the easy path without major ascents or descents, we reach the Wallersee, whose idyllic shore we follow to the end. With views of the Alps, we walk the last part of the stage to Eugendorf.

The Salzburg Way of St. James leads through the Salzburg Lake District to the festival city of Salzburg. It continues via Großgmain, Bad Reichenhall (small German corner), Unken, and Lofer to the Tyrolean border, where it connects to the Tyrolean Way of St. James. Highlights along the way include the pilgrimage basilica in Maria Plain above the city of Salzburg (Bergheim), Großgmain with the oldest Marian pilgrimage church in Salzburg, and the detour to the pilgrimage church Maria Kirchental near St. Martin near Lofer. Additionally, the Hager Jacob's Chapel and the St. James churches in Obertrum am See, Gois, and Unken are fixed points for pilgrims on the Way of St. James. Furthermore, the enchanting landscape and cultural diversity invite you to marvel, pause, and enjoy. The starting point of the approximately 100-kilometer-long route of the Salzburg Way of St. James is Oberhofen am Irrsee, a border town between Upper Austria and Salzburg, which is also easily accessible by train. The section between Großgmain, Bad Reichenhall, Unken, and Lofer is considered one of the most beautiful stages of the Austrian Way of St. James.
