Here begins the Stations of the Cross fitted with steel and granite sculptures, which line almost the entire Bergsiedlung. After the last station, a circle of 13 stone pillars, we follow a field and forest path uphill on the right. Through the beautiful Steyregg forest with its old beeches, we climb moderately higher; from the left comes the Alpine Club trail No. 51. After a short stretch along the forest edge, we reach after 3 km or 1 hour the Brauner farm at just under 500 m above sea level. We follow the asphalt road past the hiking trail crossing with a bench and enter the forest again after about 1 km by a solitary oak. The last quarter of an hour we have to exert ourselves; the forest trail is steep! After 4.2 km or 1.5 hours, we reach the 616 m high Pfenningberg summit. **Tip:** This hiking route was created in 2019 as a result of an Agenda 2000 project in the town of Steyregg. The Steyregg hikes are typical "Mühlviertel" and are easily accessible by public transport.**Equipment:** Hiking backpack (including rain cover), sturdy footwear**Additional information:** [ Tour and route information ](#ttgCollapseTourdetails) --------------------------------------------------------- **Starting place:** 4221 Steyregg **Destination:** 4221 Steyregg **duration:** 1h 30m **length:** 4,2 km **Altitude difference (uphill):** 364m **Lowest point:** 252m **Highest point:** 615m **difficulty:** medium **condition:** medium **panoramic view:** Great panorama **Paths covering:** Asphalt, Street, Hiking trail **Starting point:** Bus stop Linzer Straße at Stadtgarten/kindergarten Pfenningberg summit (possibility for return via 3 beeches route) **Destination:** Bus stop Linzer Straße at Stadtgarten/kindergarten Pfenningberg summit (possibility for return via 3 beeches route) [ ![Altitude profile Pfenningberg summit hiking route](//static.et4.de/ElevationProfileChart/Go.ashx?Experience=hoehenprofil-meta&Server=meta.tourdata.at&AddElevations=true&AddOfftrackWaypoints=false&AddSurfaces=true&AddWaypoints=false&globalid=tourdata_tour_430008171&width=355&height=250&FontSize=12&mkt=en) ![Altitude profile Pfenningberg summit hiking route](//static.et4.de/ElevationProfileChart/Go.ashx?Experience=hoehenprofil-meta&Server=meta.tourdata.at&AddElevations=true&AddOfftrackWaypoints=false&AddSurfaces=true&AddWaypoints=false&globalid=tourdata_tour_430008171&width=450&height=350&mkt=en) ](#ttgHoehenprofilModal "Pfenningberg summit hiking route") [ Along the trail ](#ttgCollapseAnDerStrecke) ----------------------------------------------- ![Imbiss Dörfler](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/416307/F6B967FE7233B8D2B9447F812027146A3B3612B2455445574664CE3DE7BFAD3F/imbiss-doerfler.jpg "Imbiss Dörfler") Dörfler Imbissstand Enjoy daily lunch menu, snacks and drinks in a nice atmosphere, guest garden, smoking & non-smoking area. ![Gastgarten genie%c3%9fen](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/395760/2CBF265771203F09F9257FC1E10A9917D3F346347B79EAE8983AD6818D662DE6/gastgarten-geniec39fen.jpg "Gastgarten genie%c3%9fen") Gasthaus Weissenwolff [ ![](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/159334/19E33EA859DA2789DC3B0C81CD553C0797091AE2949E9BCB1ADD1DC224FDCFCD/eingang-zum-meierhof.jpg "Eingang zum Meierhof") Meierhof vom Schloss Steyregg ](https://www.hornerakusko.sk/en/oesterreich-unterkunft/detail/430023510/meierhof-vom-schloss-steyregg.html) Pfenningberg ![Pfenningberg 616m](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/402270/B2DEEB9C0ED417AB12558FF885D7BFFA0EAB96507D88DC6B5880A231FED40A05/pfenningberg-616m.jpg "Pfenningberg 616m") Pfenningberg 616m [ ![](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/122499/8E9EBBDD436375AB4F7DAB18A9C1CC33FAE71F990697F07F892A162277D5C57A/schloss-steyregg.jpg "Schloss Steyregg") Castle Steyregg ](https://www.hornerakusko.sk/en/oesterreich-unterkunft/detail/430000423/castle-steyregg.html) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
