Further spectacular views of Burghausen's historic center can be enjoyed from the viewing platform, a short walk further upstream (with a kiosk and restrooms). Photographers will find the perfect setting here for their ideal shot: the 6 x 6 m "Castle Window" by local artist Stefan Esterbauer. After a short walk back, the Schmallerl-Steig path leads back down to the "Old Bridge".

The Holy Spirit Hospital, with its Holy Spirit Church, is a former hospital in the old town of Burghausen. It now serves as a church meeting center and a BRK retirement home. Between 1319 and 1332, Friedrich der Mautner and his brother-in-law Konrad Ermreich founded a hospital building with a church and cemetery outside the city gates for the sick and needy. The hospital existed here until 1956 and was replaced by a new building on the banks of the Salzach River. Afterward, the building served as an episcopal seminary and, since 1993, as the church meeting center "Haus der Begegnung Heilig Geist" (House of Encounter Holy Spirit).

The Naturfreunde forest inn in Hochburg-Ach is located at an elevation of 450 meters above sea level, about seventy meters above the Salzach River, directly opposite the Bavarian border town of Burghausen. From the terrace, guests have a magnificent view of Burghausen's picturesque old town and the imposing castle complex. Lodge owner Marek Duda opens his forest inn Mondays and Tuesdays from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Thursdays to Saturdays from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m., and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Closed on Wednesdays.

The narrow, stepped Schmallerl-Steig path is the shortest, albeit steepest, connection between the Acher district of Duttendorf and the Old Bridge over the Salzach River to Burghausen. From this romantic path, which is also part of the Upper Austrian Marien-Wanderweg (Mary's Trail), magnificent views of the Salzach River, the old town, and Burghausen Castle repeatedly offer themselves. The path climbs the approximately seventy-meter-high steep bank of the Salzach River just before the Salzach Gorge. As early as 1548, the Burghausen treasurer recorded expenses for equipping the "Schmalerl" with railings and steps.

Great view of the castle

Very interesting

I walk here almost every day with my dog, unless there is high water. With beautiful views of Austria, the castle or Marienberg, the path is a good way to get to Raitenhaslach or Burghausen's old town in a relaxed manner. There are a few benches and, depending on the water level, gravel banks too.

Whether you are a swimmer or a boater in the warm summer water, an ice skater or curling player on the frozen lake or a walker around the lake: As a leisure paradise, the Wöhrsee guarantees a natural experience with extra-long panoramic views of the castle in every season. There is also a winter bathing area, which is open daily from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. this season from October 15, 2024 to March 31, 2025. It is of course closed when there is snow or ice.
