Description

Starting point of this tour is the northern entrance of Matrei. The turnoff to Maria Waldrast leads along the asphalt road to the settlement of Mützens. At the toll station (for cars), the forest road branches off, first along the stream, then in serpentines until it flattens out (VIII wayside shrine of the Way of the Cross). Here, follow the turnoff to the right along a Kneipp facility (from here again asphalt) to the monastery.
