- The "artist village" in Neumarkt an der Raab consists of eight historic houses, partly built from clay and thatched with straw or reeds. Regular art courses, exhibitions, concerts, readings, and theater performances take place here.
- The Witch's Bridge was once a feared road connection, around which many myths and eerie legends revolve.
- The old clay storage building in Eisenberg dates back to the 18th century and once served as a storage facility for agriculture.
- The "Eisenberg lawn cross": From 1956 to 1992, a mysterious approximately 120 cm large cross marked by altered vegetation was visible on the property of Mrs. Aloisia Lex in Eisenberg. At this place, Mrs. Lex is said to have seen the Virgin Mary in 1954 and an angel in 1956.
- The game enclosure of the Goess-Saurau estate and forestry administration provides insight into the local wildlife.
- The Kodl forest house was cut off from the connection to Felsöszölnök by the annexation to Austria in 1921 and the resulting barbed wire fence (Iron Curtain). The property is now uninhabited and owned by the Goess-Saurau family.
- The stone "Borovnjak" cross was erected in memory of the innkeeper Janos Borovnjak, who was treacherously murdered in 1921 on behalf of his wife.

Roadbook
Red marking
The hike starts at Gasthaus Holzmann in Neumarkt an der Raab. The hike leads through the picturesque village past the "artist village" to the Witch's Bridge (1.5 km). There the path turns left and leads along the fields and through a mixed forest to Eisenberg (750 meters). At the state road, turn left towards the village, past rural single-family houses to the fire station, the old clay storage, and the lawn cross (1.5 km). After the lawn cross, after about 120 meters towards Hotel "Das Eisenberg", turn left east towards the game enclosure. (At this fork, you have the option to hike to Hotel "Das Eisenberg" (400 meters) to recharge for the next stage.) At the fork, go left, down the forest path, over a bridge, and then uphill again to the game enclosure. Afterwards, hike 500 m along the enclosure uphill and then downhill until you reach the pond moor (valley floor). After the enclosure, go right, after 40 m immediately left. After 130 m you will reach a junction. Take the slightly right (pay attention to the marking!), paved forest path uphill to the Kodl forest house. After the forest house, the hiking trail goes straight for 1.1 km to the 3rd fork. From there, keep right along the paved path (1.4 km) until you come out of the forest and the picturesque cultural landscape is on your left. Then the route leads towards the mountain houses (450 meters) in Neumarkt an der Raab. At the fork, the hiking trail goes straight for 830 m towards the forest to the state road L255. Turn left at the state road; after 300 meters, the starting point, Gasthaus Holzmann, is reached.
