Easy, rewarding, and very pleasant circular hike on forest paths with a detour to the dreamy anniversary viewpoint and further up to the unique Bodenwiese.
Leírás
Even the starting point at the historic Payerbach station with the museum park is eye-catching. The circular route leads uphill through a pine forest and a wonderful mixed forest over beautiful paths through woods and meadows. Unique views are enjoyed at the anniversary viewpoint, from where you can see the entire Schwarzatal and on clear days even as far as Lake Neusiedl and beyond. Also at the so-called "Ilse-Rast," there is a great view of the beautiful quiet Buchtal. Passing characteristic wayside shrines, farmhouses, and the Sched chapel, but also over steeper sections, one covers over 700 meters in height difference.

Utak leírása Circular hike in Payerbach via anniversary viewpoint and Sched chapel
From the historic Payerbach station, we follow a small path until we reach an underpass of the Semmering Railway. We walk under the underpass along an asphalted goods road uphill to the former Hochberger inn. We come to a gate and follow the signage or the blue trail marking to the left. After a sharp right turn, we continue hiking on a slightly rocky and already quite steep forest path. We continue past the slightly rocky "key point" secured with chains for less confident hikers. After the "key point" we walk uphill for about 15 more minutes until we reach a forest clearing. Along the meadow path to the left, we reach the anniversary viewpoint on a rocky elevation. Back on our way, we briefly cross a forest road and follow the blue trail marking. We reach another forest road. After about 150 meters eastwards along the forest road, we cross left uphill and reach the Bodenwiese after about 10 minutes, with a view of the Waldburganger hut. (A cozy stop is recommended at the hut before continuing the hike.) We now go downhill along the marked path or the yellow marking and pass along a forest road past the Sched chapel. We turn right and follow the signage or the red marking. We return to the valley at Werning. Continuing through Werning, we turn right immediately after the railway barrier and hike back to our starting point, the Payerbach-Reichenau station, via the so-called "Heinzelmännchenweg."
