배드 트라운슈타인 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

A beautiful lake that invites you to linger. It's easy to walk around it—but it's not wheelchair accessible.

The climb to the rock is worthwhile. From the top, you have a fantastic view of the town and the surrounding area.

A remarkable stone located right next to the road. Access is easy and possible at any time.

Worth seeing, very large and modern church.

A worthwhile circular route with, among other things, beautiful views over the landscape.

The Wiegenstein near Traunstein is a stone weighing approximately 120 tons that can be moved by human hands. The stone got its name from this legend: The legend tells that the Mother of God Mary came to the Waldviertel on a hike when she was still on earth. It was a hot day and the baby Jesus had already fallen asleep in her hand. She placed the child in the middle of the forest on a large stone block that had a very soft moss cushion on top. Maria sat down next to it in the shade and it didn't take long for Maria to fall asleep too. Then angels came from heaven and gently began to rock the huge stone and sing a lullaby. After a while, Mary woke up and she and the baby Jesus were able to continue their journey strengthened. This is how the cradle stone got its name.

One of the stone formations worth seeing - called the dragon's head.

The rock is 5 m high, 7 m long and 3 m wide. It is a leaning granite block in the shape of a wobbly stone. The following story is told in town: When a company of French soldiers were quartered in Bad Traunstein in 1809, the soldiers made fun of the huge, but apparently only lightly resting block of stone. They made a bet with the population to collapse the block into the meadow. But the wobbly stone didn't move an inch. The French left in anger. From then on, the wobbly stone was called the “French stone”.
