Organ Hiking: Stage Puch - Kulm - Puch

Open
Hiking from the parish church of Puch bei Weiz to the mountain chapel of Maria Brunn am Kulm. For all those who love enjoyable hiking.Cultural tourism: sacred art and organ hiking
We would like to invite you to combine your hike in ApfelLand-Stubenbergsee and the Pöllau Valley Nature Park with art and culture and culinary delights.

Download the free "Hearonymus" app, select "Churches in ApfelLand-Stubenbergsee and Pöllau Valley Nature Park" in the "Guides" section and your smartphone will become an audio guide. Churches and their organs and bells are presented and brought to life acoustically, so you can get to know the advantages of an individual tour with the sound of bells and organs.

The individual organ hiking tours can be easily combined with each other and can be walked in both directions, so that everything is possible, from a short hike to a long-distance hike.
