The Fairytale Trail
snadné Themed walks · Schladming
Due to renovation work at the Hotel Schwaigerhof in Rohrmoos, it is recommended to start the circular route from the Hochwurzen valley station. From here follow the route signs past the Hotel Waldfrieden to the Alpstegerhof and there along the dirt road north to the Rapunzel station and here west along the fairytale path. Access to the first station in the direction of Schwaigerhof is also possible, but after that the path is closed due to the construction site.
A loop trail filled with lots of lovely ideas for the whole family. Discover the fairytale characters along the trail and get excited with various playground equipment.
The trail is made up of a wide forest and meadow trail with only slight ascent and descents, and it is suitable for buggies. Along the way there are serveral possibilities where you can stop for a drink or a small snack: Hotel Schwaigerhof, Tauernalm and Familienhotel Austria.
Highlights:
- various figures of fairytale characters
- playground equipment along the trail
- viewing platform
- picnic area
- The trail - suitable for prams takes you past Apart & Suiten Hotel Weiden and Hotel Schwaigerhof and leads you via a series of lovingly created fairy-tale figures and pieces of play equipment to the “Witch’s House”.
From there, you walk up to Haus Strobl via 2 switchbacks. Once there, follow the Lans-Strobl-Weg to the left as far as Rohrmoosstraße. Take the sidewalk along the road downhill to Haus Primps, and after another 200 meters cross the street and follow the forest lane (in winter a ski piste) to the valley terminal of Gipfelbahn Hochwurzen cable car.
