Sandstone gorge at Maria-Hilf-Berg above Neumarkt

Beautiful forest path through the rock

The beginnings of the pilgrimage to the Mariahilfberg date back to the late 17th century. At that time there was a small burial chapel modeled on the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem and a Way of the Cross. A wooden Lady Chapel was built in 1687 very close to the Calvary. Her most valuable jewelry was a copy of a famous painting of the Virgin Mary by Lucas Cranach the Elder. Today's pilgrimage church was built between 1718 and 1727 as one of five baroque Marian shrines in western Upper Palatinate. The richly decorated baroque high altar by Johann Ulrich Wiest contains the famous miraculous image of the Virgin and Child, which is deeply revered to this day.

You don't see it every day! Especially beautiful in the morning when the sun shines into the gorge!

You can start beautiful tours in this idyllic valley directly from the hiking car park.

short route between sandy rock walls, a very impressive path

The path through the Lengenbachtal leads across open meadows and pastures bordered by pine forests. This section of the path is also part of the "Water and Mill Trail", a 67 km long route in the valley of the Weißen and Wissinger Laber.
