Detour Fairytale Trail Rohrmoos

Due to renovation work at the Hotel Schwaigerhof in Rohrmoos, it is recommended to start the circular route from the Hochwurzen valley station. From here follow the route signs past the Hotel Waldfrieden to the Alpstegerhof and there along the dirt road north to the Rapunzel station and here west along the fairytale path. Access to the first station in the direction of Schwaigerhof is also possible, but after that the path is closed due to the construction site.
