The Benedictine monastery of St. Lambrecht, which is the starting and ending point of this hike, tells a 900-year story. It shapes the place and the people in and around St. Lambrecht. Visitors can get to know the monastery on tours of the monastery, in the temporary monastery, the school of existence, tours of the monastery gardens or in the monastery and nature park shop.

Author’s recommendation

Relaxation and exercise points along the route and a stop at one of the restaurants on St. Lambrecher main square.

Roadbook

The route runs parallel to the Kapellen circuit to Heiligenstadt. From here you walk north and take beautiful paths and climbs up to St. Blase. After the town, the path leads very varied along the slope towards the west until you reach the road to Karchau shortly before the Seebauern. Here the route turns and leads over soft forest paths through the dense forests of the Koglerberg. As soon as the route leads out of the forest near Trattner, you will have a great panoramic view of the entire area surrounding St. Lambrecht. From here the route runs along the road down into the town to the starting point.
