Selected alternatives for you
    An ideal winter hike on the border in Hungary to avoid the inhospitable snow conditions in the mountains. It is only shortly before Mörbisch that you return to Austria. It is walking for the sake of walking, on January 29, 2019.

    The route has no significant inclines, except for two small valleys after the Hubertuswarte. The leafless trees in the cold season also somewhat open the view in the forest. Since roads and paths in Sopron can be icy in winter, it is advisable to bring crampons.

    Author’s recommendation

    The amphitheater, the Hubertuswarte, and the Paneuropean Picnic Place are special attractions.

    Roadbook

    From the train station in Sopron, follow this Google Maps link:

    https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?hl=de&hl=de&mid=19aCt3x2Md-u_iBC1siVg52HsIjrh8RRU&ll=47.67783374460856%2C16.585147569533092&z=17

    Towards the amphitheater. From there, on the left side of the road, there are red markings on a path which you follow to the Hubertuswarte. About 400 meters after the Hubertuswarte, first continue approximately 750 meters to the right along a gently descending forest road. Then cross about 20 meters left into the forest onto an older unmarked leafy path, descending steeply for a short distance into a valley with an uphill section. After that, continue straight with some ups and downs for about 2 kilometers in the forest until you reach a red-marked path leading down to the right. Follow the markings over the Paneuropean Picnic Place to the border station at Mörbisch. Then on the road, turn left about 500 meters to the bus stop.
