In summer, the Schlesingerteich pond with forest spring water quality offers the opportunity for fishing and swimming. In winter, Bärnkopf has made a name for itself as a cross-country skiing center. Bärnkopf is also an ideal starting point for hikes, MTB tours and excursions to interesting cultural monuments in the Waldviertel.
Woodchopper museum: The woodchopper museum displays the development of the area from the time it was first developed to today's forestry industry. Old saws, choppers and other tools help to provide a lively insight. Various adventure areas let you discover wood, the forest and the way of life.
• Follow the prescribed direction of travel
• Ski on the right, overtake on the left
• When stopping or falling, clear the track immediately
• On trail sections with oncoming traffic, the climber must give way
• Pedestrians and dogs are not allowed on the trail (forestry law, danger of accidents, destruction of the track)
• Please keep the forest clean. Carry everything you brought into the forest back out with you
• Do not leave the marked trails
• In strong wind and with ice-laden trees, staying in the forest is dangerous and at your own risk
