Malching: A View of Malching. © Sebastian SteudePhoto: Sebastian Steude, Rother Bergverlag
People have inhabited the Inn Valley since time immemorial, as the first settlers found a variety of food sources—particularly along the wide, fertile river valleys—and safe places to live on the nearby hills. For example, a fortification on the Einsiedlerbuckel is believed to have been built as early as about 6,000 years ago. Later, Celts and Romans settled in the region, as evidenced by several archaeological finds at the Biberger Viereckschanze. Until the end of the 18th century, the Inn River served as an important trade route. Goods of all kinds were transported by boat from Tyrol and Salzburg all the way to Passau. An important stop along this route was the “Hacker Bock” in Biberg near Malching—even today, house names such as “Schopper,” “Hacker,” and “Förg” bear witness to this era.
We start our hike at the parking lot next to St. Ägidius Church in Malching and walk a short distance down to the main street, which we follow to the right toward Ering. Across from City Hall, we turn left onto Am Bahnhof toward Urfar. Soon we leave the last houses of Malching behind us, pass a multipurpose hall and a sports field, and turn right onto a gravel field path just before the highway. This path runs westward along the highway, lined with cherry trees. Thanks to the effective noise barriers, we hear surprisingly little from the A94, which is only a few meters away on this stretch.We reach a quiet side road, which we follow to the left across the highway, before soon turning left again onto a side road toward Asperl. Passing several farms, we hike toward the Inn River. Shortly past the small hamlet of Asperl, the road takes a sharp left turn and eventually runs parallel to the Inn toward Urfar. At first, the nearby river is completely hidden behind the dense riparian forest,
