April 16, 2025,Spitz an der Donau – Kirchplatz Spitz Runde von Mühldorf

A wonderful hike, especially in spring when the fruit trees are in bloom. It can get quite hot in summer. There are drink coolers in the first third of the trail, where you can enjoy local specialties. In summary: A truly beautiful hike in one of Austria's most beautiful cultural landscapes ❤️
