Description

You start at the Marienbrunnen in Kufstein, which is known among other things for its golden Marien column. In total, the circular route covers about 30 stages. On these stages we pass some well-known and worth seeing pilgrimage churches and parish churches. After about 33 kilometers we see the first pilgrimage church on our route, the Maria Klobenstein church. We continue over several stages to the pilgrimage church Maria Eck, which we reach after another 32 kilometers, here the routes M2 and M3 separate. After leaving this beautiful church behind us, after about 13 kilometers we arrive at the pilgrimage chapel Maria Schnee, it was built in 1631. Now a few more stages follow, until at kilometer 207 we are greeted by the Mariastein pilgrimage site. On a hill the impressive Mariastein church rises into the air.
