Walking, Nordic walking or running - a special experience is Reichenau an der Rax!
Whether you're just looking for a short, leisurely stroll, a short Nordic walking tour or a run. The Grünstigbach Promenade is something for everyone. The tour is perfect if you're short on time or if you're a runner looking for a morning run. You can only get to the Grünstigbach stream through the village on firm ground. Accompanied by the quiet babbling of the stream, you come to the Schwarza, where the river cools the air a little, especially on hot summer days. Over bridges and through the spa gardens past the music pavilion, you can enjoy the beautiful landscape and do something for your health at the same time. A special bonus for culture and architecture fans: the tour takes you past Reichenau Castle, the parish church of St. Barbara and the town hall. These beautiful buildings are all listed buildings.
Safety
Make sure when choosing the route that it matches your experience and your fitness. Check the weather report in advance.
Running tips:
Start slowly to get your circulation going gradually. After about 10 minutes take a short break with stretching exercises. Vary the pace to increase fitness gains. Avoid overexertion, especially on steep sections; better to walk if your fitness level is insufficient. Observe warm-up and cool-down phases. Finish the run gradually and do not stretch too intensely afterward!
Wear suitable clothing and good running shoes. Remember rain and sun protection. Bring enough to drink.
