Tips from the Community
The Mariensteig leads through the Eng in the Höllental and runs partly narrow and exposed along the rock faces. Steel cables secure the steeper passages, yet surefootedness and a head for heights are required. An impressive route that combines alpine character with beautiful views into the valley.

A nice trail through the forest, but surefootedness is still required; it's quite steep. A rope is provided for stopping throughout the more difficult section. No sandals, toddlers, or strollers recommended!

The "Eng" is a very picturesque gorge where you can still see reconstructions of the timber harvesting 150 years ago.

The 1st Vienna Water Pipeline Trail is well maintained and easy to walk; the steps are non-slip and not steep.

The Mariensteig is a mostly wide, well-secured and rather easy path that can also be walked by people with a fear of heights or children who are experienced in off-road terrain, with a wire rope providing additional safety.
