Goldsteig · Stage 12 of 38
Goldsteig S 12 Falkenstein – Wiesenfelden
The stage begins at the pavilion between the hiking parking lot and Falkenstein. First, a leisurely stretch of trail leads to the Tannerl pilgrimage chapel in a tranquil forest clearing, then around Lake Postfelden—and then the highlight of today’s tour begins: the Hölle Nature Reserve. After passing the rustic, carved signpost reading “zur Hölle,” the trail follows an approximately 4-kilometer-long, unspoiled route along the Höllbach stream through an extraordinary natural landscape. Shortly before the Fahnmühle, the Goldsteig leaves the Höllbach Valley to begin the ascent to the Leiblberg immediately afterward. In Aumbach, there’s time for a well-deserved break at a traditional tavern. The trail then winds through vast forests and a beautiful meadow landscape, going up and down, through the Perlbach Valley to the Gasthaus am See, past the Hubmühle to the Schiederhof, a possible place to stay for the night. An alternative is the “Naturlaubsort” Wiesenfelden, located 4 km away.
