Route description alpannonia - Regional route Markt Neuhodis - Hirschenstein

We start in Markt Neuhodis from the Schaumühle or the Inn Glavanics towards Weiden bei Rechnitz and turn right to the vineyard after about 500 meters at a chapel. At a fork a few meters further on, keeping left, we pass several info boards about the origin and life of butterflies until we reach Althodis. Crossing the village, we turn right at the exceptional church and continuously ascend along the paved road up to a fork. Taking the left option, we branch off after a few meters to a field path on the left. Following the next crossing path to the right, we turn left into the dense forest after a tree nursery and circle around the treetop walk. In front of the entrance area, generous seating invites you to rest before we set out towards the access road and parking lot. From there, we follow a forest path up to the Hirschenstein, where the prominently visible transmission tower points us to the main trail. Once at the top we stand next to the transmission mast as well as the summit cross of the Hirschenstein.
