    Roadbook

    • We start our tour at the village square in Fischbach and walk to the petrol station
    • We turn right in front of it and follow the road past a large warehouse, where the gravel road begins
    • At first we have a good view towards Falkenstein, then we enjoy the tranquillity of the forest
    • In a bend to the right, we turn left onto a narrow, steep path uphill along a small stream
    • This path eventually leads into a forest path, which we continue along until we reach the “Gräfinnen-Villa” - a pretty little house at the top
    • From there, we walk slightly downhill along the access road until we arrive at Veronika's Kräuterhof
    • We turn left into the road until we pass the petrol station again at the village square in Fischbach
    • We can also hike the tour in reverse order!

    A few tips on correct and fair behaviour in the forest: (Source: www.bundesforste.at )

    Hikers should avoid visits to the forest about 1.5 hours before sunrise and after sunset, as wild animals are particularly active during this time.

    Plastic bottles, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts etc. have no place in the forest! Please make sure that you do not leave any rubbish in the forest.

    Camping and lighting fires are strictly forbidden in the forest!

    In principle, every person is allowed to pick 2 kg of mushrooms and berries per day for personal use. It is only prohibited if the forest owner expressly forbids it.

    • Small backpack with water bottle (+ provisions)
    • Sturdy shoes
    • Appropriate clothing - if possible several layers - "onion principle".
    • Rain and sun protectionWalking sticks as required
    • Mobile phone
    • Small first aid kit
    • Route description
    • Before starting the hike, check the possibilities for refreshments, including opening times, or pack appropriate food and drink.
