In the immediate vicinity of the well-known Lockenhaus Castle in the district of Oberpullendorf, the renovated Paulusbrunnenbrücke bridge ensures an important connection. This popular crossing for hikers and cyclists has been completely renewed to optimally reconnect the path between Geschriebenstein and Burgsee. In addition, smaller wooden bridges in the municipality, such as the Auwiesenbrücke, are regularly maintained and kept in good condition with fresh planks.

The Esterházy Trail entrance in the Oberpullendorf district near Lockenhaus marks the starting point for a really cool flow trail in the middle of the Geschriebenstein Nature Park. The route winds its way through nature over eight kilometers and offers a lot of riding fun, especially in the lower part with a few cool jumps and berms. Because the upper section starts off more leisurely, both relaxed touring riders and families get their money's worth here.

At the Geschriebenstein Pass summit in the district of Oberpullendorf, the local chapel serves as a well-known and popular starting point for excursions into nature. Directly after the small house of worship, numerous hiking trails and mountain bike trails begin. In addition, the impressive state memorial of Burgenland, which architecturally also resembles a chapel, is located very close by.

The Geschriebenstein pass height is located at 802 meters above sea level in the Günser Gebirge mountains and connects the towns of Lockenhaus and Rechnitz as a road crossing. At the same time, this crossing serves as a perfect and popular starting point for leisurely hikes and bike tours up to the nearby summit of the Geschriebenstein, which at around 882 to 884 meters represents the highest elevation in Burgenland. Directly on site, the state memorial, designed in 1961, also commemorates the victims of the two world wars.

A great idea to transform the old railway line into a spacious cycle path. We crossed the path on our hike. It looks very well-maintained and is surely great for cycling.

I hiked past here and absolutely had to stop in. I couldn't just walk past the sign "The best coffee in Burgenland". It had to be tested. And lo and behold, it tasted good. And of course, I wanted to know more. The owner of the hotel actually roasts the beans himself. And you can taste it. But... just try it yourself :)
