The picturesque Sebastianiweg leads us on our last stage of the Mariazellerweg from the small community of Mitterbach am Erlaufsee through the beautiful landscape above St. Sebastian to the pilgrimage basilica in Mariazell.

On the route of the Via Sacra, starting from Mitterbach am Erlaufsee, we first hike along the Götschlhofweg to the relatively secluded St. Sebastian's Church. The actual Sebastianiweg with its many rosary stations begins at the beautiful church and leads us above the municipality of St. Sebastian and at the foot of the Mariazeller Bürgeralpe to Mariazell.
