오버슐리에바흐 최고의 사이클링 경로

Right next to the town hall and a generously sized village square, there's a charming little square with a lovely fountain and plenty of seating. What makes this peaceful spot so special is the stunning view of the Krems Valley and, weather permitting, a breathtaking sunset – highly recommended for a break any time of day.

Here stand the well-preserved former station buildings (reception building, goods shed, and a smaller shed) of the Schlierbach/Krems station, which was abandoned in 2007 and relocated to another location on the new Pyrhn Railway line or rebuilt there. This relocation was necessary due to the re-routing of an approximately 10 km long section of the Pyrhn Railway. Although all buildings of the old station are closed, they are in very good condition and are for sale by the Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB).

Here it is a bit flatter, later it goes more up and down.

Great view over the mountains in the Steyr Valley

A container for hikers and cyclists, heated, with coffee, drinks and snack machines - ideal for a break in bad hiking weather.

Known for the oldest iodine brine spring. Always worth a visit.

The castle dates back to a castle stable with a building yard built by Wilhelm von Rohr around 1397. Wilhelm's castle on the Hausberg - at the foot of which the castle is located - was besieged and destroyed by Duke Albrecht III in 1390. The later owners from the Zelking family - Erhard von Zelking acquired the shares in Leonstein in 1447 and 1459 - formed the Feichta valley castle from the castle stable and building yard. Count Georg Siegmund von Salburg acquired the castle and the Leonstein estate in 1629 from the Zelking family's inheritance. The Salburg family rebuilt Feichta in the Baroque style in 1724 and called it "New Leonstein". At the end of 1919, the Upper Austrian state government bought the property from Count Theodor Salburg for 2,000,000 crowns. Count Schmidegg, who had already leased the castle from the Salburg family, stayed at the castle even after the change of ownership. From 1920, Leonstein Castle was a state property and belonged to the state forestry administration. The fermentation cellar of the Leonstein brewery was located in the building. Renovation and conversion work followed in 1938. The female labor service of the RAD (Reich Labor Service) was subsequently housed there; the Schmidegg couple had already died by this time. From 1944, the Wehrmacht used the building - for training courses, among other things. After the end of the war, the property returned to state ownership. Since November 1945, it has housed a state children's home.
