The beautiful, imposing church dominates the main square here. All around you will also find some places to rest and eat. Right next to the church, there is also a fountain.

Beautiful view into the Pinkatal. Especially in good weather, a photo spot.

The small sacred monument we encounter on the Geschriebenstein, in the form of a summit cross, is—besides the view it offers—perhaps also the perfect place for a brief moment of reflection. A few years ago, Christiane Völkel commented on the wonderfully fitting sentence by the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch (who lived in the 14th century), "Everywhere one has heaven above oneself," as follows: "What is the use of prayer? This question moves me (...) I have found for myself the answer and the certainty that when I pray I am with the Lord, or rather, that when I pray he is often noticeably closer to me than usual. Thus, I retain the possibility of pouring out my heart to him (...) This intimacy with him makes me believe in him."

A pleasant route, good infrastructure. Swimming lake in Rechnitz. Also of interest is the Kreuzstadl memorial in Rechnitz. In Bad Tatzmannsdorf, be sure to stop by the Spiegel chocolate factory and/or the Kaplan pastry shop. On Wednesday mornings, the weekly market in Oberwart has a very special atmosphere.

Some of the MTB routes are poorly signposted and are not marked on Komoot, for example, so memorize them well.
