Thermal circular trail (Thermen Rundwanderweg)

At the beginning of the tour you will take some impressions of the center of Bad Waltersdorf. A visit to the Roman Stone Museum next to the parish church is recommended. Cross the main intersection - then turn right along Schulstraße past the outdoor pool. Then continue straight ahead over the railroad crossing to the Heiltherme. Before the Heiltherme you pass beautiful orchards. At the spa, the tour joins the so-called Thermenstraße and turns right onto Hinterfeldweg. Pass the two wine taverns Pieber and Thaler. A forest path leads past the Sauberg mountain to Speilbrunn and Obergfangen. Over the railroad crossing it soon goes again along a forest path to Leitersdorfberg. Past the golf course, with a beautiful view, the path leads back to the town center to the starting point.

• Ambulance: 144
• European emergency call: 112

Tips when reporting an emergency – Answer these six WH questions: What happened? How many people are injured? Where did the accident happen (are there GPS coordinates)? Who is reporting the incident (callback number)? When did the accident happen? What is the weather like at the site of the incident?

Proper backpack packing makes many things easier: Pack heavy things first. The water bottle should always be within reach in a side pocket. All the things that are often needed, such as sunglasses, camera or hiking map, belong on top. An emergency kit, including blister plasters, belongs in every rucksack and it is always advisable to dress in layers.
