 This tour leads from the center of Nußdorf am Attersee on the Westwanderweg further to the Nussbaumweg, the Reiserbauernmühle and to the Egelsee in Unterach am Attersee

 From the Municipal Office/Info Office at the start [Wildholzweg](http://www.wildholzweg.com/) via the Anger and Oberdorf to the finish Wildholzweg and power place "Pfarrer Salettl" from where there is a magnificent view over Lake Attersee to the opposite Höllengebirge.

After about 2 hours on the Westwanderweg and a short detour to the "legendary Berimandl Stoa" (here in 2011 a unique nut tree plantation with about 100 nut trees of different varieties - from the paper nut to the Caucasian nut to the normal hazelnut was created) it continues after another 5 minutes on the Westwanderweg where you come to the Abwzeigung Reiserbauernmühle.

The [Reiserbauernmühle](https://www.atterwiki.at/index.php?title=Reiserbauer-M%C3%BChle) is an old, renovated house mill from the 17th century. In summer there are weekly demonstrations of the old mill. In 2005, the mill was also designated as a power place.

Back on the Westwanderweg, after about 30 minutes you come to the Egelsee nature reserve in Unterach am Attersee. This small high moor lake at 600 m above sea level offers the observer interesting vegetation such as the sundew, fescue grass, etc.

After another 20 minutes on the Westwanderweg we arrive at the [Panorama Gasthof Druckerhof](https://www.druckerhof.com/restaurant), whose unique location high above the Attersee makes you forget the exertions of the hike.

The way back is either via the same route or you hike further to Unterach. From here you can decide whether to take the bus or the boat back to Nußdorf.
