Fairytale meadow tour, Fischbach

A circular path with reading panels of the best-known fairytales leads to the beautiful fairytale meadow in the middle of the forest!
The round shows the most famous fairy tales on boards for reading and reading aloud. On the fairytale meadow, a flat meadow in the middle of the forest, everyone can relax, play and look for a “Wurzelsepp” in the forest. There is also plenty of entertainment for young and old at the starting point in Fischbach. For example, the mini-golf course or the leisure lake are perfect places to round off the hike in comfort. The innkeepers in the village are great places to stop for refreshments.

Elementary school, Fischbach
  • We start at the elementary school and go left past the Freidhof and uphill into the Roseggersiedlung
  • We leave the settlement behind us and follow the forest road to the left after the small chapel above the houses
  • There we already find the first boards, which are mounted along the path for (pre-)reading and viewing
  • The path is fairly level until we turn right after the Frog King and follow a short, steep forest path uphill, which eventually leads to a large meadow in the middle of the forest: the fairytale meadow
  • This place inspires you to be a prince or princess yourself.... Tables and benches invite you to linger
  • Then we walk along the forest road until we reach the path above the Roseggersiedlung at the chapel and walk along it again until we reach the parking lot
To extend the tour a little, you can walk around the Reithkogel. Here you can enjoy a wonderful view from the lounger.
