Experience the unique fruit tree landscape in close proximity to the Vitalwelt Bad Schallerbach (Bad Schallerbach world of vitality)!
In the nature park Obst-Hügel-Land in the municipalities of Scharten and St. Marienkirchen an der Polsenz you can experience nature in many different ways. From the fruit tree blossom in spring to the scattered fruit harvest in autumn, from the exclusive nature show offer to the practical fruit tree pruning course.
Offers
The fruit hill country is especially popular with hikers and cyclists. The Cherry Blossom Trail in Scharten or the Weberbartl Trail in St. Marienkirchen/P. are just two of a total of twelve signposted circular hiking trails in the nature park. And since 2012, there has also been a 37-kilometer-long Obst-Hügel-Land bike trail that leads right through the nature park. TIP: A glass of refreshing Schartner or Samareiner Most and a hearty snack also make the breaks a pleasurable experience!
You can obtain the nature park leisure trail map at the Vitalwelt tourist information office in Bad Schallerbach or at the nature park office in St. Marienkirchen/P.
The Most museum and the fruit educational garden in St. Marienkirchen/P. are also worth a detour. And on no account should you miss a stop at one of the many rural fruit and Most producers during an excursion to the nature park. The offers here range from fresh fruit (cherries, apricots, apples, pears) to cider and juices to fruit sects, brandies and liqueurs.
