Winter hiking local & walking path Rapoldsberg

All local and walking paths start in front of the service center – with a view of the BK Bike bicycle shop and the service center behind you. Start at the service center and go to the left. After the Gasthof Post turn right into the street and follow the signage of path no. 85, which always leads uphill along the Erzweg. After the Bernhardgut and the Kniegut you reach the forest at the “Viererwasch”. At a fork in the path keep to the right and continue to the next crossroad. Here turn right in the direction of Hotel Bergheimat and follow the path behind the Bergheimat to the Hotel Sonnhof. Cross the Mandlwandstraße and continue hiking on path no. 86 towards the Alpengasthof Rapoldsberg, where you have a wonderful view of the so-called “Schattseit” of Mühlbach and the Schneeberg.
