Here you can see how the Traun connects to the Danube.

The "Stairs of Death" at the Mauthausen Concentration Camp Memorial, closed since 2018, is once again freely accessible. According to ORF, the staircase connecting the former Mauthausen concentration camp with the adjacent "Wiener Graben" quarry has been open to visitors – at their own risk – since April 1, 2025. https://ooe.orf.at/stories/3299601/ https://www.mauthausen-memorial.org/de

I don't know - a cyclist in front of the Stairs of Death (photo by Martin T.) - ridden or pushed - it doesn't matter - a bicycle has no place in a place like this!!! Here, where so many people have lost their lives... - I would never push a bicycle across a cemetery either. The quarry is a place of remembrance and devotion that deserves to be treated with respect.

Beautiful view of the VÖEST

Beautiful Linz local mountain, easy to reach for everyone

Bypassing the power plant canal for fish. The Magerbach is used here as a fish ladder to bypass the Jaukerbach (Kleinmünchen power plant). The second part of the fish ladder is at the bridge on the Saporoshjestrasse over the Jaukerbach. It is also a popular place for dogs and people (to cool their feet) to cool off.

The Pfenningberg is a 616 meter high mountain in the neighboring community of Linz, Steyregg. It belongs locally to the Mühlviertel and geologically to the Bohemian Massif.

a really nice place...even with a summit cross...I was thrilled, also by the varied hike 😉
