Hiking tour Starting from Joseph Misson House in Mühlbach am Manhartsberg
The market town of Hohenwarth-Mühlbach on the Manhartsberg has a very special character, situated in the beautiful transitional landscape from the Waldviertel to the Weinviertel, between the Manhartsberg, Schmidatal and Wagram. Gently rolling hills, lush greenery from the forests of the Manhartsberg and vineyards that produce excellent wines. Buschenschank (typical taverns), wine festivals with open cellar doors, wine tastings and wine culinary delights invite you to linger. The birthplace of dialect poet Joseph Misson (1803-1875) in Mühlbach is well worth a visit, with a mixture of historical collection, contemporary art and library, it shows the region's path through the centuries. The Romanesque church towering high above Hohenwarth, Mühlbach Castle with its revitalized baroque garden and English landscape park and the "Hiata-Hut" in Ebersbrunn are further worthwhile Excursion destinations.
The well-marked circular hiking trail, equipped with information panels, begins at the birthplace of the dialect poet Joseph Misson and leads through the “Steinberg” —featuring the image of the “Black Madonna”—to Mühlbach Castle, a late Renaissance structure with a medieval core, owned by the Gudenus family. You’ll cross the castle’s revitalized Baroque garden and then enter the expansive English landscape park, which impresses with its giant trees, swamp cypresses, and a large pond. Via the “Dirndlweg”—a path arched over by the branches of the cornel cherry trees—the route continues toward the village of Bösendürnbach. First, you hike upstream along the Dienbach, and then the trail leads over the Lenischberg and Heidberg back to the starting point.
