Hiking
A baroque chapel dedicated to St. Nepomuk is reminiscent of the rafting tradition in Wels. Saint John of Nepomuk was also the patron saint of raftsmen. Gottlieb Nester donated the Nepomuk statue around 1718, which was then installed in 1732 in the wayside chapel erected by the Flösserzeche. After a restoration in 1964, the chapel was rotated 90 degrees. The Trauntor was also in this area at the time.
