Between the bridge over the Ager and the bank protection wall there is a metal gate that leads to a riverside path on the left bank of the Ager. This path stretches between the bank protection wall and the riverbank, where three benches invite you to take a rest. The path continues along the top of the bank protection dam. You reach the culvert that supplies the Weissenbach with water under the Ager. After this point, the path leads into the floodplain and runs about 10 to 20 metres from the left bank of the river. As the path continues, you come to a fork, our path continues in the right-hand lane. The Ager now turns downstream in an arc to the north as far as the Ager weir, from which the Mühlbach is diverted. There is also a long rapids at this weir. At the same time, you reach the marked nature trail, which you continue along. Along this nature trail, boards point out the special features of the floodplain. At the next junction with the road through the floodplain, continue northwards along the nature trail. After a short distance, you cross an industrial railway track and again some benches invite you to take a rest. Shortly afterwards, the nature trail branches off to the left. However, the circular route continues straight ahead along the alluvial forest. After you can already see the buildings of Puchheim Castle and the outer castle on the hill, you cross the Weissenbach stream and come across an avenue of lime trees. The path continues to the ponds, which lie directly below the castle and the outer bailey. Walk left along the ponds in a south-westerly direction, accompanied by an old row of lime trees. A few benches invite you to rest here too. The path continues in the direction of Gmundner Straße, offering a beautiful view of the pilgrimage church and the castle. This road takes you back to the starting point in "Weissl's" guest garden.
