    Description

    The hikes are also described in the hiking map of the municipality of Kaumberg as Froschweg, Hahnweg, Burgweg, Hirschweg and Fuchsweg. The village of Kaumberg itself has plenty to see with the barrel fountain on the main square, the Gothic parish church of St. Michael and the local history museum . A particular highlight of the municipality and a very popular excursion destination is the ruins of Araburg Castle, which can be seen from afar.

    The Froschweg is a longer loop over 4 hills, from each of which you can enjoy beautiful views of the surrounding area. The trail is a medium-length hiking tour that leads from Kaumberg in a clockwise direction through the cultural landscape to the east of Kaumberg. The Red Cross is reached via the promenade, the descent to Gänswoad in the Steinbachtal valley requires a bit of a sense of direction. The short ascent to Kleinbacherhöhe quickly leads to Höfnergraben, which is reached at the "Paradise Garden" campsite. The subsequent hike on the asphalt road into the valley hardly disturbs the overall impression of the tour. From the Höfnerhaus, you finally reach the Steinbachtal again via the Sticklerhöhe and via "Lug ins Land" back to Kaumberg.
