 **Experience the Josefweg digitally:**
Our web-based app accompanies you with exciting content, helpful information and all the details about the trail:
<https://beyondarts.at/app/josefweg/>

For the 2nd overnight stay, you have the option of taking the route to Neukirchen.
For this, you start the 3rd stage at the end of the 2nd day's stage.
In the Zöhrergraben we change to hiking trail no. 3 towards Neukirchen.

 Neukirchen variant
2nd stage:

As soon as the forest road joins the country road at Großalm, we follow it to the left for 100 metres to turn left again onto the Moosbach forest road. After a further 3.5 km, we come to the variant junction. Do not turn left up to Hochkreut, but right down to Neukirchen. Initially follow the bends in the road, then via meadow paths (old church paths) above the country road directly to the village centre, where there is a nice guesthouse for overnight stays. Please pre-book here too! (this variant extends the 2nd stage by 5 km to a total of 23 km)

3rd stage:
The next morning there is an opportunity to buy a snack (bakery, butcher, Spar supermarket). Then we take the direct route up to the former Hochkreut animal park. At the 1st station of the Way of the Cross to Richtberg Taferl, we rejoin the route indicated on the Josefweg. The total distance of the 3rd stage is shortened by 2.5 km to a total of 22.4 km with this variant.
