The Path of Views is a circular hiking trail starting from the spa park in Bad Schönau, offering beautiful views of the town and surrounding landscape.
Description
"He who has no goal in sight cannot make progress on any path." Short texts and quotes by the Lower Austrian writer Ernst Ferstl encourage the hiker on the "Path of Views" to pause and reflect. Several panels along the roughly 100-minute easy circular trail invite the hiker to stop and absorb the landscape and nature.
Bad Schönau offers numerous hiking opportunities and a suitable hiking map. The "Path of Views" goes through the districts Ortbauer and Maierhöfen. After the hike, many places to eat, sleep, and relax in the spa park await you in Bad Schönau.
