The Lebensblickeweg offers a total of 12 thematic points and is a varied circular route that reflects the everyday life of bygone days with old photos of the Sarleinsbach population. The numerous benches and rest stops along the way are visually very successful, the themed meditation area with a view of the Ameisberg is particularly beautiful. On the way you are in the wonderful landscape around Sarleinsbach. The initiator of the path, Franz Eibl, was able to involve large parts of the population in the implementation of this joint project between the parish and the tourism association. The result is a varied circular route that brings back the everyday life of bygone days with old photos of the Sarleinsbach population. Pausing at the individual stations is contemplative and often enjoyable. Again and again, memories of our own childhood and youth were awakened during our hike. The starting point of the well-signposted path is the parking lot at the Mandl herb farm at the end of the village. Childhood is the name of the first station right at school and soon after that you are out and about in the hilly landscape between the Danube valley and the Bohemian Forest. A nice first resting place is at the Chager chapel with its healing spring, one of the numerous Augenbründl in the Mühlviertel. The numerous benches and rest stops along the way are also visually appealing. The meditation themed area with a view of the Ameisberg is particularly beautiful. At the Sarleinsbachblick the eye wanders far over the Mühlviertel landscape and at the station "Genuss" the table and benches invite you to take a break for a snack. Past the Chagermühle, the path then leads up to the last vantage point over Sarleinsbach. "A long hike without stopping is like a life without festivals" - this saying of the Greek philosopher Democritus is written on the last plaque. (Source: bergwelten.com)
