HWW-Hiking route: Lebing/Römergrab - Römerhütte - Ehrenschachen - Götzendorf/Römergrab

This HWW hiking route is part of the Wechselland Historical Long-Distance Hiking Trail (HWW), which tells the story of Wechselland along more than 100 HWW stations. More information can be found at www.wechsel-wandern.at.
This extremely extensive HWW hiking route takes you back to the time when the Romans ruled over Wechselland for 400 years. Along the HWW hiking route, you will come to all those HWW stations that have a historical connection to Roman times, such as the Tempelleiten Chapel HWW station, which also focuses on Roman-era turf ore mining. The HWW hiking route leads from the Lebing/Römergrab HWW station to the Römerhütte HWW station and from there via Dechantskirchen, Ehrenschachen, Sinnersdorf, Sparberegg and Götzendorf to the Götzendorf Roman grave. At the Götzendorf/Römergrab HWW station, you will learn about the special features of the find.
