Prof.-Frede-Strohmeier-Way
Who was Professor Fred Strohmeier? Professor Fred Strohmeier was the son of a chaste family in Khünegg. Already in the country youth he was known for his stories. In addition to his work as an editor and chief editor at the "Neues Land", he began to write plays, novels and Gschicht'n. Fred Strohmaier died in 1999 at the age of 57.
The hike starts at Petersplatz and continues along the path to the recreational facility. The hiking trail leads together with the Wine and Mill Trail south to the Ottersbach Bridge. Here the two paths separate - the Fred Strohmaier Weg now continues to Edla, past meadows and fields over the Auersbach brook up into the forest. Here you reach Khünegg, the birthplace of Fred Strohmaier. His birthplace is covered with straw and offers interested visitors an insight into his life. Your hike leads along the ridge with a great view. A few museums await you in Perbersdorf before the trail continues to the Weinwarte. Enjoy the view! Along the next ridge, past Austria's only cigar producer to the Calvary Chapel and from here via the Way of the Cross and the recreational area back to the starting point.
