Character:
Easy hike on goods roads, forest and meadow paths.
A good overview is provided by hiking trail S 4, which leads you south to the Heimkehrerkreuz cross and down to the village of Unter St. Thomas. Just before the chapel on the main road (opposite the Untermartaler farm), you need to take a sharp right - this will take you through a romantic forest valley down to the Kefermühlbach stream. Walk briefly out of the valley on the goods road there until a path on the right leads up to the ruins of Saxenegg, which are in a state of ruin. Below it, the trail leads through a romantic forest with countless granite boulders to a forest road that leads to the Elmböckalm. Turn right there, cross the meadow and turn left before the edge of the forest to the Renold farmstead. Turn right in front of it and head towards the Großöllinger (the Schwärzermauer and the Einsiedlerstein with the largest sitting bowl in the Mühlviertel are hidden in the forest to the left of the path). On the municipal road you soon reach, walk 1 km to the right in the direction of St. Thomas. At the chapel of the Dechtlgruber farm, you can see a large pitch oil stone - wood was once smouldered on leaf-shaped grooved stone slabs like this one in order to extract healing essences from it. Then turn right onto hiking trail S 4. The trail descends through a wooded ditch (the two smallest pitch oil stones in the country are hidden in the towering rocks opposite). At the bottom, walk briefly to the left along the farm track next to the Kefermühlbach stream, then turn right along farm and field paths to the Kleindienst farmstead and past a wayside shrine back to the starting point.
