    The S 32 Aschau Loop connects the idyllic countryside around Willersdorf and Aschau with a special viewpoint on the Kreuzberg. The approximately 10.8-kilometer loop hike first follows the Willersbach stream through the Willersdorf Gorge and the Aschau floodplain. It then continues along forest and meadow trails up to Aschau and on to the observation deck at Kreuzberg. From there, a sweeping view opens up over southern Burgenland and the surrounding hills.

    If you’d like to combine the hike with a stay in Bad Tatzmannsdorf, you can reach the Aschau Loop via the marked connecting trail S 33 from Bad Tatzmannsdorf to Willersdorf. The connecting trail is about 7 kilometers long, making it possible to start the tour directly from Bad Tatzmannsdorf. Accommodations are also available in Aschau.

    Author’s recommendation

    Roadbook

    The Aschaurunde begins in Willersdorf and follows a varied loop trail through the charming countryside surrounding the Willersdorf Gorge. Forest trails and open farmland make this a lovely hike for anyone who wants to explore Southern Burgenland on foot.

    From Willersdorf, the route first follows the Willersbach stream and leads into the Willersdorf Gorge. The forested section creates a particularly atmospheric setting: the further you hike into the gorge—crossing small bridges along the way—the more peaceful and unspoiled the landscape becomes.

    Leaving the gorge, the loop heads to Aschau, where you’ll be rewarded with fantastic panoramic views from the observation tower. The trail continues through the gently rolling hills of southern Burgenland back toward Willersdorf. Along the way, shaded forest sections alternate with open views of the surrounding countryside.

    The Aschau Loop is thus a beautiful circular trail that combines a nature experience with the cultural landscape of Southern Burgenland.
