Opis trasy Small Plambachecker Height hiking route

From the Hofstetten-Grünau train station, we go right along Grünauer Straße towards B39 – town center. From the main square at the citizen and community center, we continue along Kabatsbergerstraße following the signs for hiking trails 3/3 and 3/5. We cross the Pielach river and turn right after the bridge. After a short climb, we turn left onto Gabetsbergerstraße and follow the forestry road to Materl. There, we follow the signs for trails 3/3 and 3/5 and quickly gain altitude. We pass the Plambacheck 1 property, cross the forestry road, and arrive at the Muhr farmstead (the highest farm in Hofstetten-Grünau). Continuing to follow the markings, we walk along the pastures and steeply ascend in the woods following the signs. At the top, we turn left and soon reach a clearing where a bench and a cross are located. This is the Plambachecker Height, where we enjoy the beautiful view, sit on the bench, and observe the cross of local heritage research erected by the association on the Plambachecker Height.

The return follows hiking trails 3/3 and 3/5 westward to Plambacheck. At the Hofbauer farm, we reach the Plambacheck forestry road, which we follow to the second to last hairpin turn. There, we turn right and follow the signs for trail 3/3 along the Pielach river back to the Pielach bridge into the town center. At the citizen and community center, we cross the B39 and go left past the Strohmaier guesthouse through the alley into Marktstraße. At the crossroads
