R8 Pferdeeisenbahnrundweg

Walk in the footsteps of the horse-drawn railway to Kerschbaum. Extension via Unterpaßberg and the Castle and Palace Trail possible. The hike starts past the Rainbach parish church in the direction of Kerschbaum. After about 1.3km you will find the first viaduct of the horse-drawn railway and a small railway guard's cottage. Tip: visit the horse-drawn railway museum in Kerschbaum. Here you can learn interesting facts about the first railway on the European continent. www.pferdeeisenbahn.at
You will also find viaducts in the forest and hike along the route of the horse-drawn railway. Coming out of the forest, you can already see the large yellow railway station building. You can choose between 2 routes back to Rainbach. The shorter one leads through a beautiful wooded area directly to Rainbach.
The longer one takes you to the village of Unterpaßberg, where you cross the Feldaist over the "Passberger Steg" and return to Rainbach.
