Buchberg (801 m) - small mountain with a big view!<\/strong><\/p>\n

From the plateau, you have a view of both the gently rolling Alpine foothills and the rugged Limestone Alps.\u00a0with a view of 120 mountain peaks(!)<\/strong>\u00a0from the Traunstein to the Wilder Kaiser.

Gentle experience of nature<\/strong>
The Buchberg Nature Park stands for mindfulness with nature, regeneration and health. Whether hiking among colourful flower meadows, soaking up the sun above the autumnal sea of fog or snowshoeing in the glittering winter forest - the gently rolling shapes make the area an ideal destination for the whole family all year round!

The adventure playground on the platform below the summit provides cosy hours for young and old. Special themed trails lead to Hallstatt burial mounds and past the new boulder park and \u201eenergy places\u201c. Legends and myths are told and you can learn interesting facts about the flora and fauna of the beech forest. If you like, you can relax on the cradle lounger at the small chapel and enjoy the marvellous Alpine panorama.<\/p>\n

Six star-shaped themed trails<\/strong> - various starting points. Signposted trails lead through the Buchberg Nature Park: the \u201eFarmers\u201c Trail\u201e, the \u201cPower Trail\u201e, the \u201cLegend Trail\u201e, the \u201cBird Trail\u201e, the \u201cForest Trail\u201e and finally the \u201cWild Vegetable Trail\". Each trail takes between 30 and 60 minutes to complete. Theme trails<\/strong>\u00a0up the Buchberg<\/a><\/p>\n

Directions:<\/strong> From the centre of Mattsee, the Weyerbucht car park is the recommended starting point. You walk past the Spar-M\u00fcnsterholzstra\u00dfe car park. From there, you reach the Buchberg by walking past the primary school and crossing the main road. A steep section of forest follows, which leads to Vogelh\u00fctte. You can shorten this first ascent by parking directly at the Vogelh\u00fctte car park (or on the other side of the Buchberg) and from the Vogelh\u00fctte car park, the \u201eVogel- und Sagenweg\u201c trail leads to the summit circular trail - with a viewing platform including a cradle and panoramic mountain display board. Interesting themed boards (with episodes from the world of legends) also accompany you on the \u201eLegend Trail\u201c.<\/p>\n

Follow the marked hiking trail to the summit cross (801 metres). Hikers can sign the summit register there. As an alternative to the summit ascent, the 5.5 kilometre circular hiking trail is also recommended. Walking time approx. 3 hours.<\/p>\n

Please enter the nearby nature reserve Egelseen (direction Schleedorf) only with respect for the protected animals and plants.<\/p>\n

Enjoy mountains in motion<\/strong>
The Buchberg is one of the \"EuRegio summits\" - the summits are connected by the 163 km long \"Slow bike\" cycle circuit.\u00a0Link<\/a>\u00a0to Slow Bike Tour.<\/p>\n
