Hirschweg

Description

The beautiful hikes are also described in the hiking map of the municipality of Kaumberg as Froschweg, Hahnweg, Burgweg, Hirschweg and Fuchsweg. The village of Kaumberg itself has plenty to see with the barrel fountain on the main square, the Gothic parish church of St. Michael and the local history museum . A particular highlight of the municipality and a very popular excursion destination is the ruins of Araburg Castle, which can be seen from afar.

The Hirschweg trail leads across meadows and sometimes through woodland, offering great views. During the hike, mountains such as Eisernen Tor, Schneeberg and Ötscher come into view. From Kaumberg, the Hirschweg trail first leads uphill via Sonnenhang to Brennhof. You can already enjoy beautiful views of the Araburg during the ascent. From here, it crosses an almost flat asphalt road to Gerichtsberg, the watershed between Triestingtal in the east and Gölsental in the west. Here you can stop off at the "Gasthaus am Gerichtsberg" (fresh sheep's cheese). After crossing the B18 main road, the trail follows the farm access road (asphalt road) to the Herbst farm, which you do not reach, however, as the trail turns east into the forest at the Bramerkapelle chapel. Through the forest, the trail leads north past the Bramerhöhe (740 m) and the Bramerkreuz until it crosses meadows again before the Großreith farm (Berg-Heuriger Großreith). After a stretch of asphalt road past the Stadlmann, the trail leads straight downhill to the starting point with beautiful views of Kaumberg.
