Achen Mariathal loop
Pleasant looped trail along the Brandenberg stream with special spots to pause for a break
The short circular trail starts in Kramsach village centre. After a few minutes you already reach the Kneipp facilities. A nice place to connect with your inner self and take the first short break. Continue past the tennis court and to the left along the river, past the Mariathal Basilica - stop and have a peep inside - to a large bridge. The next highlight - directly after the wooden bridge - is the sculpture park. This exceptional open-air exhibition space is an absoloute must! The path leads over a bridge back to the Sonnwendjochbahn (defunct chairlift) car park. Somewhat further down the road is the entrance to the fitness mile. A nice path leads through the woods. Decide for yourself, raise your pulse on one of the fitness equipments or lose your sight in the high treetops. Back at the tennis centre, the route follows the river and leads back to the starting point.
There are several places to stop for a bite and something to drink along the route, such as the Gasthaus Mariathal right next to the basilica, Liftstüberl Kramsach next to the fitness mile, Hotel Jagdhof or the Tennis-Pool-Arena at the tennis centre.
