What is special about guided walks?
The gentle, steady movement on the hikes focuses our attention on our immediate surroundings. Movement in nature strengthens our immune system, invigorates muscles, organs and circulation, and activates our brain. Each of the 8 hiking trails is accompanied by a person who knows the route and knows about the special features along the way. The conversations in the hiking group are an additional enrichment, according to the motto: "LIVE TOGETHER IN DIVERSITY!"

Detailed information on how to get there can be found here.

The start is in the direction of Feldbach, via the Kornberg settlement to the Auersbach retention basin, through the Kornberg military training area past biotopes in the direction of the model airfield and on to the Meierhof farm. Then there is an ascent via the horse trail to Kornberg Castle with a rest and play area as well as gastronomy. Passing the castle, we take the Zwergenweg down to the state road and at the rose arch across the Auersbachtal valley to Kleinwalkersdorf. We continue to the left until we reach the main road and then turn right along the sidewalk. After about 400 m we turn left into the biotope and across the high water dam we return to the inn "Das Herbst".
