This hike takes us around the municipality of Kapelln. We walk along the Petronilla stream to Etzersdorf and on to Killing. In Katzenberg, we visit the oldest church in the parish area and then hike uphill to the local mountain. We also pass Schloss Thalheim, the so-called "Stierschweif" and the "Andreas Friedenswarte".
Comfortable hiking clothing and shoes.
From the starting point at the parish church, the path leads along the Petronilla stream to Etzersdorf, crosses the state road towards Gutenbrunner Forest. Here, the circular hiking route also crosses the Jakobsweg. It continues eastwards to Killing. Following the Perschling river upstream to Katzenberg, where you will find the oldest church in the parish area. Here you cross the federal road and follow an asphalted field path uphill to the local mountain and follow the direction arrows along the edge of the forest to a meadow at Rassing. It continues to the village road to Obermiesting and via a meadow path to Thalheim, where you can enjoy a magnificent view of the newly renovated Thalheim Castle.
