Take a pew and savour the view - the new “Bankerlweg” on the panoramic Hochwurzen

Hikers on the new “Bankerlweg” - Box-seat Trail - on the Hochwurzen in Schladming can look forward to glorious long-distance vistas savoured from the vantage points of a series of strategically-positioned benches.

Visitors to the Schladming-Dachstein region will be able to enjoy a new attraction in the form of the newly-created “Bankerlweg” on the Hochwurzen. This beautifully designed panoramic circular path is sure to delight pleasure-seekers and summit-conquerors alike.

The starting point of the new “Bankerlweg” is reached aboard the Hochwurzen summit lift. From the mountain station the gently undulating circular route via shady, romantic woodland paths up to the summit at 1850 metres takes around one hour to complete. En route hikers will find a host of inviting resting places where around 20 original and off-beat seats have been installed including the Lovers' Bench, the Family Bench and the Sunset Bench.

In keeping with the maxim "Nothing helps us on our way better than a break (quote: Elizabeth Barrett Browning)", the hiker is invited to take a seat and savour both these distinctive works of art in bench form and the unique views they afford.

Planai-Hochwurzen-Bahnen is proud that most of the benches on the “Bankerlweg” have been designed and built by our own employees. They were allowed to give free rein to their creativity, as the wide range of off-beat designs they came up with amply illustrates. Visitors can also admire the hand-carved, life-size animal sculptures placed alongside the trail which provide insights into the local fauna. This unique experience can be rounded off to perfection with a mountain go-kart ride down the mountainside or a descent aboard the gondola lift back to the Hochwurzen valley station. The new “Bankerlweg” on the Hochwurzen is the ideal destination for families and visitors of all ages, combining exercise, education and fun in a stunning natural setting!
