Numerous hiking trails meet at Forchtenstein Castle. The castle is therefore the hub for hikes to the Rosalia and beyond. First we go along Reserlgasse and then we join the Reitsteig. From there it is a little steeper through the forest to the Rosalien Chapel. The somewhat sweaty climb through the Rosalia forests is rewarded with the most beautiful panoramic view at the summit of Heuberg, 748m, where the Rosalien Chapel is also located. The Rosalien Chapel is unique in Burgenland due to its early Baroque interior, which has been preserved in its entirety, and is visited again and again by numerous pilgrims. It is particularly popular for weddings and baptisms. Up there, where heaven and earth seem to touch, you can enjoy a unique view over the whole of northern Burgenland, deep into the Vienna Basin and Hungary, and also over the Bucklige Welt, the Rax, Hohe Wand and Schneeberg. It is particularly enchanting up here when there is snow, because you feel like you are in a "winter wonderland".

The Forchtenstein bathing reservoir is fed by the Haidbach. It is located in the middle of "Paradise", as the side valley of the Rosalien Mountains is called. It is 15,000 m2 in size and scores points for its natural shade. Oases of peace and water fun are the best ways to describe the area. It is particularly popular with families as it has very shallow access. A diving tower and a water slide, beach volleyball court and playground for the little ones provide variety. On the sun terrace with a wonderful view of the lake, the canteen spoils you with one or two delicacies. Whether you are a bather, hiker, cyclist or walker - a visit is always worthwhile.

A place where you can feel peace.
