  • Our starting point is the village square in Fischbach - from there we walk (without snowshoes for the time being) towards the Fischbach bathing pond
  • We leave this behind us and continue - probably easier with snowshoes - on a snow-covered forest floor along the stream to Angerkarl
  • Here we turn onto path no. 17 towards Hofbauer until we reach path no. 10
  • On the Fischbacher Spazierweg we then take a paved path (without snowshoes) with a wonderful view of the high-altitude climatic health resort of Fischbach via the Riedlerhof back to the starting point
In winter, the bathing pond becomes your ice skating rink. Please bring your ice skates - ice skating is a great sport for young and old when the temperatures are right and the ice is nice.
Timetables and travel information can be found at Österreichische Bundesbahnen (ÖBB) or at Verkehrsauskunft Verbundlinie. For local transportation we recommend the SAM-Sammeltaxi Oststeiermark.
