 From the beginning of the Kneipp area follow the river downstream, pass Pension Prielerkreuz and cross the river Steyr over the Schachingersteig bridge. The path to the Poppenberg mountain (860m) starts on the opposite side, next to the petrol station and leads steeply uphill to a viewing platform an a protruding rock.

 From here you can enjoy stunning views of the valley. Follow the forest road downhill along the sunny side and in an easterly direction around the mountain. You can shorten your path in Schönau by walking the shady part of the mountain straight downhill towards the Stoder Valley main road or further on to the Stromboding waterfalls to return back to your starting point along the Flötzer path. The proper path leads along forest and field paths passing a number of mountain farmhouses, circling the entire Steyrsberg mountain offering views to the opposite sunny side of the Tambergau, which you reach by following the tar-road for a short while before taking a path through the forest down into the area of Tambergau. There you cross the Stoder Valley main road as well as the river Steyr on the “Sagmeister” bridge to continue along the Flötzer path upstream towards the Stromboding waterfall and back into the village.
