Way of Mindfulness - Stage 5:
Start: GOMDE, Bäckerberg - Scharnstein
Finish: House of Mindfulness - Grünau im Almtal





Way of mindfulness

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


A circle that closes

When the morning sun illuminates the paradisiacal garden of the Gomde, the final day begins with light steps. Your legs stride downhill on hiking trails and could take root for a while just before the village of Viechtwang. Here, a 500-year-old lime tree on the south-eastern slopes of the Hacklsberg rises into the sky as a natural monument, providing shade and strength. Passing the parish church with its onion dome, we head towards the already familiar Alm river. We stay close to its crystal-clear waters and follow it through the village of Scharnstein. The rafting trail leads back to Grünau im Almtal, where we come full circle at the House of Mindfulness. We can look back with joy, pride and gratitude on a path that may not end here after all, because it will lead us a little further in life.

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