OF COURSE CULTURALLY. From the parking lot in Pürgg you march past the parish church and St. John's Chapel in the direction of Unterburg Castle and Trautenfels Castle, across the historic burial ground to Untergrimming and along the Kapuzinersteig trail back to Pürgg.
Author’s recommendation
Above Trautenfels Castle, only a few minutes away, the detour to the Neuhaus church ruins is worthwhile.

- Plan your trip in advance, taking into account walking time, distance, elevation gain, hazards, and weather reports.
- Let others know where you are going and when you want to be back.
- Turn back in good time if the weather deteriorates. If you are caught in a thunderstorm, stay away from free-standing trees and wait out the storm, crouching if possible.
- Stay on marked trails and remember to close pasture fences.
- If you are a dog owner: Clarify before the hike if you need to cross a pasture. Keep your dog on a leash and make sure it stays calm. If a cow attacks, let the dog off the leash immediately. Never pick him up to defend him.
