    Along the route, eight stations with depictions of the main prayer elements invite you to observe and meditate. The creator of the images, which are embedded in granite blocks about the height of a man, is Dr. Walter Besler from Zöblen.
    The barrier-free paths and excursion destinations we have selected also invite families and people with mobility aids to discover: They are mostly asphalted or well-graveled and usually easy to travel with strollers or wheelchairs – although some sections may benefit from an assisting hand.

    On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the Sacred Heart vow, with which the Tyroleans celebrated their victory over Napoleon, the parish of Grän in the Tannheimer Tal created in 1996
    a path of inner reflection. This path uniquely connects meditation, art, and nature. Since then many walkers and hikers
    have traveled the somewhat more than one-kilometer-long “Lord’s Prayer Path” from the St. Michael's Chapel in Lumberg in the direction of Tannheim on route no. 1.
    Along the route, eight stations with depictions of the main prayer elements invite to observe and meditate. The creator of the images, which are embedded in granite blocks about
    man height, is Dr. Walter Besler from Zöblen.
    “My goal was above all to motivate people to reflect,” said Besler. The “Lord’s Prayer Path,” from which there is a wonderful view across the valley,
    offers the necessary quiet and setting for this. A composition containing numerous Christian symbols like the burning bush has emerged,
    but also showing the work for daily bread as well as God’s children of different skin colors. A walk on the “Lord’s Prayer Path” inspired the East Dorf lyricist
    Helmut Hauser to create a cantata, which was set to music by composer Roberg Pappert and premiered in Beuron Monastery in 1999.

    Roadbook

    From the parking lot, walk straight across the field to the district Neu Grän. At the end of the houses, turn left. Slightly downhill to the main road. Cross the street and turn left again. At the bus stop, turn right. From here continue slightly downhill to the first side path, then turn right over the bridge and behind it turn left over the small ditch. Now continue across a field to the asphalt road. Turn right here and after a few meters turn right again. After approx. 200 m follow the signs to the left. The path leads gently uphill to the beginning of the Lord's Prayer Path. Info brochures about the themed trail are available here. At the end of the path, a gravel path leads down to the parallel field path. Turn left here until the asphalt road is reached. Continue to the right to the intersection and then down to the left. It is not far to the bridge over the stream. Cross the bridge and then turn right. At the next cross street turn left into the village of Grän. A short stretch uphill and the starting point is reached again.

    Equipment

    Summer hiking:
    No special equipment required as the entire path is paved.
    Winter hiking:
    A contemporary and well-maintained set of equipment (shoes, poles, and clothing) not only provides a considerable amount of safety but also greatly facilitates
    winter hiking. Sun protection (high SPF and possibly sunglasses) as well as enough fluids should not be forgotten.
