Hiking

The "Holy Water" chapel near Helfenberg is idyllically located in the Mühlviertel region, very close to the famous Maria Rast forest chapel. It is a small, wooden structure with a holy water fountain and numerous images of the Virgin Mary and saints. The spring next to the chapel is particularly valued, as it is said to have healing powers—especially for eye diseases.
