Winter-Rehbach tour

This winter hike begins at the Scheffau Tourist Information Office. Follow the road in the direction of Hintersteiner See lake and don’t forget to take a look down into the gorge from the bridge – you won’t be disappointed! Then turn right after around 300 metres on to the natural hiking route. From here, walk along the romantic Rehbachklamm gorge to the Schiessling-Leiten intersection. Continue towards Leiten and let your cares slip away as you take in the complete tranquillity of the forest and the crisp winter air. Enjoy the unspoilt forest trails and the spectacular view up to the Kaisergebirge mountain range. Walk through the district of Leiten before the circular route takes you back to the village centre. As this section of the route takes you past the Gasthof Weberbauer inn, you can finish your walk with a refreshment stop.
