This leisurely circular walk takes us from the centre of Stubenberg to the romantic Hinterbrühl gorge and back to Stubenberg.

We start the hike at Stubenberg village square and then head towards Apfelwirt-Flaggl. On the right-hand side of the road we see a large former department stores', we turn right after this house and continue along the path until we come to a crossroads.Here we cross the road and turn left immediately after a car park and a house, passing through an archway into the Hinterbrühl Gorge.Here we can really relax and enjoy - some "benches" invite us to do so.

After the gorge, the path crosses a meadow and continues along a small stream to the road. The path crosses the road again.

This is where the Hinterbrühlweg and Seeweg paths join. We then take this path back to the village square at a leisurely pace.
