Circular hike "Stilles Tal" - Kasten

In the first part, it goes through a charming mixed forest and then we stroll along the pleasantly meandering Stössingbach. There is a lot to discover in a small area and wonderful places to pause. Silence and retreat, but also room for 'little adventurers' offer this beautiful circular hike.

The circular hike offers a lot of variety in a small space thanks to the beautiful mixed forest, species-rich hedges, and the lovely Stössingbach and we come to wonderful spots. Brief views open to Krausenberg and Hegerberg. There are no significant climbs to overcome, making this route invite a leisurely stroll with many resting opportunities. Refreshment options along the way include the tavern 'Most Sepp'. Additionally, there is a guesthouse in the village.

Route description Circular hike "Stilles Tal" - Kasten

From the starting point, the parking lot of the parish church Kasten, we walk uphill along the street. After about 150 m, we turn right, following the signpost "Stilles Tal" into a residential street (marked white/blue/white). Soon this changes into a meadow path, which quickly leads into the mixed forest. Walking along the forest path, we pass the rest area 'Zum nodigen Wirt' and come to a view of the idyllic Landhaus Kaltofen. Here we descend to the right to the gravel road, which we follow downstream, passing the archery ground, along the main road. We now cross the street and go down to the Stössingbach before the bridge. Arriving at the creek, we follow the "Kastner Uferweg", always next to the Stössingbach, back to Kasten. About halfway, we can stop at the tavern 'Most Sepp', family Zöchling – see the signs. Refreshed, we continue along the riverside path to the tennis courts. In front of them, we walk gently uphill to the village center, cross the intersection, and return to our starting point.
