Hiking
The Kapuzinerberg can be accessed via over 5 official routes,
Stefan Zweig Weg (asphalted, moderate, easiest variant, accessible all year round)
Doblerweg (steep, many stairs, off the other 4 routes)
Nordweg (many steps, runs through the forest, offers no panoramic views itself, has connecting paths to 3 other variants)
Südweg (starts asphalted, merges in the upper third into the Basteiweg from where it continues via stairs)
Basteiweg (the longest and most difficult variant, leads along the defensive wall, many stairs, the most panoramic views of the city, fortress, and mountains)
