Stepping Stones Walkway on the Bründlweg

Highlight • Bridge

The eighth wonder of the world? Well, this is a very special place! Right at the start of the Bründlweg trail, a six-meter-deep pond awaits the brave. A 40-meter-long footbridge spans the shimmering water, and not just any old way! You can wade in up to your calves and still reach the other side with a steady step. The railing ensures you don't fall into the chilly water, and the stepping stones help you cross safely.

But if things get a bit tiring, there's a cozy rest area in the middle. There you can sit and look directly at the famous Steirereck inn – a real treat for the eyes and the soul. And when you finally reach the other side, a hut even awaits you to dry your feet. You can look back with pride on your underwater-above-water walk and think to yourself – this kind of experience is truly out of the ordinary! You can definitely say that this is a real taste of Styrian joie de vivre.
