Description

Beautiful circular route in the middle of the nature reserve in an idyllic and very quiet location high above Göstling an der Ybbs. Cross-country skiers and winter hikers share the path, which also includes eleven educational stations about the raised bog and the Dürrenstein-Lassingtal wilderness area.

Equipment Winter shoes
Parking Parking and WC Hochmoor
Getting there About 8 km from 3345 Göstling an der Ybbs to the end of Hochreit Street. Follow the signs to Leckermoos. The street is narrow with passing bays and has up to 15% incline -> possibly chain requirement.
Editor’s tip After the winter walk, a visit to the Göstling brine spa warms any frozen limbs.
