Description
The second transition. The journey begins. The last mystery that science fails to solve: Where to? What will be there?
We do not know. In a world of reason and technical feasibility, not knowing has no place. Death becomes a taboo.
Encountering it is inevitable. It is up to each person to face death with full fear or to approach this transition calmly, perhaps even with some curiosity.
Walk this stage with awareness of your own feelings toward death.

Experience the second transition in the “plain”
From Leiben, where there is a great view of the Danube in Heinzing, the route continues to Maria Taferl along the Jakobsweg. In Losau, passing the wooden bell tower, it proceeds comfortably through Hasling to Artstetten. There you can visit Artstetten Castle with its bright crypt. Over Unterthalheim, you can already see the towers of the Maria Taferl basilica, where the stage also ends.
