Viewpoint with Mostbrunnen at Plattenberg

Highlight • Viewpoint

The path from the Elisabethwarte is a very nice, easy gravel/forest path, which is even signposted as a "children's MTB path". At the Mostbrunnen you can buy drinks and enjoy a beautiful view over the town of Kürnberg.

Highlight • Rest Area

Enjoy the view with a sip of must from the region.
Use the crank to get the basket out of the fountain - choose a drink and pay.
Unfortunately not in winter.

Elisabethwarte (Plattenberg, 750 m) – a historic observation tower (18.5 m) with 360° panoramic views over the Most, Mühl, and Traunviertel districts. Accessible via 82 steps, it features a tower bust of the Empress and the "Rock the Sissi" climbing wall.
A must-see on any trip to this area.
Incredible views stretching from the Ötscher to the Traunstein.

Parish Church of St. James, Kürnberg

Highlight • Religious Site

Beautifully located church in the small town of Kürnberg - worth seeing with an interesting ceiling fresco.
From the surrounding cemetery you also have wonderful views of the Alps and the Kaiserin-Elisabeth-Warte.
