Description

In the state memorial year of 2009, the Reith Schützenkompanie built the heritage-protected Rosary Path leading to the Frau Häusl Chapel – a contemplative hiking trail that connects nature and faith.

The starting point is the Reith Information Office. From here, the route leads to the Parish Church of Saint Nicholas and continues along the old Roman road onto Bichlweg. At the first bend, a signposted forest path branches off to the left, leading into the peaceful woods.

Along the path, five artistically crafted wayside shrines, carved from reddish larch wood, display a total of 15 relief panels. These depict the joyful, sorrowful, and glorious mysteries of the Rosary. The Inzing-based artist Annemarie Beiler designed and painted the panels in intricate detail using Lafarge concrete.

The Rosary Path follows a gently babbling brook and eventually leads to the Frau Häusl Chapel, a tranquil place for reflection. Those who continue a little further will discover a small waterfall – a rewarding sight for nature lovers.

For the return journey, there are two options: either retrace the same path or take the Reither Panorama Trail/Kaiserstand Trail to complete the hike as a scenic circular route. Both options lead back to the Reith Information Office.
