Dominion forest trail (Herrschaftswaldweg)
The Herrschaftswaldweg is a very flat trail, which mostly leads through the forest. The W7 leads from Bad Waltersdorf - Wagerberg and Limbach.
Hiking improves endurance and strengthens the musculoskeletal system. In addition, regular exercise has positive effects on physical as well as mental health.
The starting point of the hiking tour is the information office in the center of Bad Waltersdorf. The 11.2 km long hike leads to Limbach. On the flat tour you cross forests and can be enchanted by quiet places. The route leads past the Heiltherme Bad Waltersdorf and numerous hosts of the 2-Thermenregion.
