Burgenland Mariazell Way 06 - Stage Großhöflein-Forchtenstein-Walpersbach

The starting point this time is at the Antonikapelle in Großhöflein. The Mittelburgenland-Rosalia region offers a diversity that is unparalleled. You pass through vineyards, orchards, colorful strawberry fields and shady forest areas. Landscape art, small chapels and impressive buildings, such as Forchtenstein Castle, where the hub of the hiking trails is located, invite you to rest. Accompanied by magnificent viewpoints, you hike along the Leithagebirge and through the Rosalia mountains up to the Rosalien Chapel on the summit of the Heuberg. There, the Rosalien Chapel surprises with its baroque furnishings as well as the most beautiful panoramic view in Burgenland with a magnificent view over all of Northern Burgenland on one side and on the other into the Bucklige Welt, to Schneeberg and the Steinfeld. Here you already cross the border to Lower Austria.

It then continues behind the chapel down the Heuberg past the lumberjack houses, Sinabelkreuz, Grasriegel, down the Mehlberleiten over the Steinfeld towards Puchberg. Over the Maumauwiese you reach the Gscheidl in the direction of Frein to Mariazell.
