Ruttensteinweg No. 95 - The Ruttenstein castle ruins are one of the mightiest fortified castles in Austria. The view from the well-preserved residential tower is magnificent and, in good weather, extends from the beautiful Mühlviertel hills to the Dachstein.

Leaving the village and following the Große Naarn for a short distance, the route leads uphill via a narrow footbridge to the "Hörzinghofer-Kreuz". From there, the trail continues gently uphill towards the Ruttenstein ruins. In good weather, the well-preserved tower of the ruins offers a magnificent view far into the countryside. Now it's downhill. The way back leads through marvellous forests down to the power station on the Große Naarn. The route leads along the water back to Pierbach.
