Nice hiking trails. The children (7.10) thought there weren't enough swings for the name. It mostly went through the forest. Due to fallen trees, in the last few days there have been severe storms, we sometimes had to leave the path a bit or climb over trees. At the end we went to the Reifnitz lido for refreshment. 😀

A nice little hike, unfortunately with a lot of asphalt and sun at the beginning and end. But the forest trail to the castle and chapel was beautiful and easy to walk even in barefoot shoes.

👣🐾👣 On the way with my two girls on the Slow Trail Schaukelweg (St. Margarethen Runde) The Schaukekweg has many special features. Starting in Reifnitz at the car park directly on Lake Wörthersee, we passed a pagan place of worship, the Opferstein, and were able to take a look at the mountain church of St. Margarethen, explore the Reifnitz castle ruins and the church of St. Anna. Swings and hammocks invited us to linger and relax. *Edit: another, less pagan place of worship is or was the Granit GTI - one of the world's largest Volkswagen meetings has taken place here since 1982.  If it hadn't rained so much, we would have liked to have stayed longer. But a beautiful rainbow over St. Margarethen compensated us for the longer period of rain. 🌈 Highest point 588 m Destination: Reifnitz boat dock - car park
