Hiking

The basilica in Graz-Mariatrost is an impressive pilgrimage church in which I almost felt like a pilgrim due to the 200 steps that lead up to it. I had only "fallen out of the tram" once before visiting. It's definitely worth a visit, have fun!

On the occasion of the patronal feast found here – the popular pilgrimage church in the Graz area is dedicated to "The Nativity of Mary" – I would like to offer those staying here a short reflection by Saint John of Damascus (born 675/676, died before 754): "The day of the birth of the Mother of God is a day of universal joy, for through the Mother of God the entire human race was renewed and the suffering of the first mother, Eve, was transformed into joy."
