Route description Luftbergweg
This circular hiking route starts at the municipal office in Aggsbach-Dorf and leads a short way on the sidewalk past the Kellerhaus towards the village center, in the direction of the Aggsbach Charterhouse. At the junction to the Haidn guesthouse shortly before the bridge, turn left and just before this guesthouse, the path leads right over the so-called "Hartl" turning left to the transmitter. From the transmitter, the path returns over the Luftberg. It is definitely worth taking the short detour to the Luftberg viewpoint (2 min), because from there you can see into the Danube valley and as far as Melk.
Back on the path, follow the slightly downhill field path and after the wildlife enclosure, turn right. Passing the Kellerhaus, you will reach the municipal office again.
