Details for: From Scheibbs to Lampelsberg (to the transmitter)

Description

We leave Rathausplatz via the Rathaus stairs heading towards the Erlauf. We cross Haupt and Gaminger streets until we cross the river via the wooden footbridge "Sandsteg" and continue our path along the left Erlauf bank. Along the Erlauf promenade, we stroll through a shady chestnut avenue upstream. We pass the Töpper and the Cardinal Franz König bridges. Where the Erlauf promenade finally flows into Strudenweg, we turn right and after crossing the Erlauftal railway reach the Güterweg Lampelsberg. From here we hike steadily uphill, passing the houses Schacher and Goganz until we finally reach the Ödbauer farm. Our route then continues via a footpath to the transmitter station from where we enjoy a wide view over the land. It is now only a short way to our destination at the summit of Lampelsberg.
