Pöllau, castle park

This trail is also the pilgrims' path and part of the Hirschbirn hiking trail from the Pöllau parish church to the Pöllauberg pilgrimage church.
We start at the Pöllau parish church and hike via Schmiedgasse to the roundabout, where we also meet hiking trail no. 942 north of the Raiffeisenbank in the direction of Pöllauberg.
We follow these hiking trails to the pilgrimage church of Pöllauberg.

The Pöllau parish church and the Pöllauberg pilgrimage church are open all year round during the day - so devotions are also welcome.

Timetables and travel information can be found at Österreichische Bundesbahnen (ÖBB) or at Verkehrsauskunft Verbundlinie.

For local transport we recommend the SAM-Sammeltaxi Oststeiermark.
