Tips
The Steyr Spring is the source of the Steyr River and is picturesquely located at the foot of the Totes Gebirge mountains in Upper Austria, near Hinterstoder. Here, the crystal-clear, ice-cold water emerges from the karst rock – fed by underground tributaries from the mountains.The surrounding area is unspoiled, wildly romantic, and a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers. From the Baumschlagerreith parking lot, a family-friendly hiking trail leads to the source in about 15 minutes.The Steyr Spring marks the beginning of a river that later flows through the town of Steyr and eventually empties into the Enns River – shaping life and work in central Upper Austria for centuries.
What's special about it is that the river already originates here as a proud stream!translated by

Only a small detour leads from Baumschlägerreith car park/inn to the source of the Steyr (730 m) Here you can enjoy the wonderful pubs in the ice-cold water and the sound of the source of the Steyr
