 The logo with the frog symbol accompanies the hiker from the Wanderstein starting point on the promenade in Freistadt via St. Peter through the Bockau and back to Freistadt. Along the way, the hiker encounters interesting stations on the theme of water.

 Embedded in the wonderful Mühlviertel hilly landscape, the water hiking trail is an interesting excursion around the medieval brewing town of Freistadt. Starting from Freistadt, you can explore the forests and hills around the town of Freistadt and learn new and interesting facts about water. Along the way, you will come across 15 information boards with interesting topics ranging from the Archimedean screw and the forest as a water reservoir to the primary rock water of the Freistadt brewing community.
