Monastic landscape path Zwettl, N2. 59

We start at the parish church and pass the Hundertwasser fountain heading towards the Old Town Hall. To the right, we follow Hamerlingstraße and walk up to the roundabout. We walk along the bank of the Kamp past the Hussite Cross to the Bozen settlement, where the street then rises and leads us over the so-called Devil's Mountain. We follow the street over the bridge and turn right. Shortly after, we turn left into the forest path towards the abbey, on the so-called Hopfenbergweg. After visiting the abbey, the return path goes downhill in the direction of the fish ponds towards the weir. We cross the stream and take the forest path towards the Neumühle located on the bank of the Kamp, which belonged to the abbey. We follow the so-called Kuenringer path and turn right after the bridge onto the path back to Zwettl. We follow the signage back towards Traunerhäusl. Passing the archery range, it goes on to the district Oberhof and back to the parish church.

For winter hikes, we recommend a thermos with warm drinks, warming functional clothing, headgear as well as gloves, pocket or headlamp.

Arrival by bus to Zwettl Kampparkplatz and then on foot.
