Tree circle path (Baumkreisweg)

Open

One of the most popular themed trails around the spa. Meet your birthday tree on 2.6 km and get to know your positive and negative characteristics.

This path is peppered with many special features. In addition to the 22 described "birthday trees", where everyone can read their good and bad characteristics in black and white, there are virtually additional picnic areas and floating loungers along the way, a swinging birch bench, an old tree press and stations of the motor skills trail. But even scenically this path offers a lot. You walk past vineyards to the highest point of the community with a far-reaching view to Hungary and in the evenings you often have fantastic sunsets, which you can enjoy in a floating lounger. At the end of the path you can enjoy typical Styrian delicacies at the Thermenheurige Kropf or Riegler's Buschenschank. On the way back to the starting point you have the most beautiful view of the spa area.

Start at the entrance to the spa in the direction of Hotel Stoiser. It goes up to the Lautenberg, direction Herberge/Birkenhof and turns right at the birch trees between the vineyards on the dirt road. After a short stretch of forest you meet an asphalt road, turn left here. After about 500 m you will again come to the group of birch trees. Here you turn right and make a short loop before you come to the end of the path. At the asphalt road turn right back to the starting point at the entrance to the spa. Approximately half of the trail is asphalt road, the rest is meadow and forest road.

The many special features along the way invite you to walk it several times.
