The Karleitenweg is a popular circular trail for those seeking peace and quiet or for walkers. The special thing about this trail is that you can see Oberzeiring from a slightly different perspective. Past various farms, across flowering meadow paths or through short stretches of forest... 
Hiking...With respect for wildlife and the environment!

In the Pölstal, we are particularly concerned about the preservation of unspoiled nature. So that the pleasure of the people does not become a problem for wild animals and nature, it requires consideration measures. 

For the sake of nature and the environment, correct behavior in the mountains is the top priority for the hiking enthusiast.

- Use the designated parking areas

- Do not block access roads and please respect local driving regulations

- Observe information boards at the starting points and stick to the recommended marked routes

- Avoid approaching wildlife

More information

The Kurhotel Oberzeiring is located in the middle of Oberzeiring.
You start your hike directly at the Optimamed health resort Oberzeiring and walk along the main road to the new middle school Oberzeiring. There, turn left into Kalvarienbergstraße and follow the path towards the Hoanzl snack station. However, follow the signs no. 6, as you have to turn left just before the Hoanzl. Now walk from farm to farm (from Taurer to Kobald and on to Tatscher). You come to a paved road again (the Höhenstraße - it leads to the Tauernwindpark Oberzeiring), which you can walk down to the main road. From there, walk along the main road to Oberzeiring. After the Sprinz riding stables, you can also follow the signs no. 10 so that you don't have to walk directly on the main road.
Enjoy the tour and stop off at one of the Pölstal inns or at the Hoanzl snack station after or during your hike....
