Way of mindfulness

A path that makes mindfulness with yourself and the environment tangible through consciously experiencing nature & spiritual impulses

Feeling life
On this section, civilisation accompanies you noticeably more intensely: first you pass through the abbey town of Schlierbach. Where farm tracks lead between fields, the path below the motorway briefly reminds you of the hectic flow of time. When you take the Hubertusweg in Inzersdorf, the route climbs back up into the countryside. Looking back in front of the Hubertus Chapel, you will be amazed at how far your own feet have carried you. The Magdalenaberg parish church is the next highlight. Poppies between the fields accompany you to Heiligenleiten church in early summer. Back at the alpine pasture, after a loop over the Bäckerberg, you reach a mysterious place surrounded by Tibetan prayer flags: The Gomde, the international Buddhist centre, is located in a square courtyard and is the perfect place to take a break and sleep.

Further information will soon be available on the website and in the accompanying booklet for the path of mindfulness!
