The special topography of the Strudengauer 9er allows hiking through 9 communities in one day. Leisure hikers divide the marathon route into several stages. In total there are 4 different routes: The Mystical, The Cozy, The Demanding and the Grein city walk. Each stage has a different theme and varies in walking duration, length, and difficulty level. The Strudengauer 9er, also known simply as the "9er", offers numerous hiking highlights such as the Mondstein, the Gobelwarte viewing platform in Grein, the Motor skills park Grein, as well as the wonderful view of the Danube at the rock gate. Besides demanding stages like the Matrassteig, there is also a cozy route with a unique panorama. The Grein city walk completes the hiking marathon and provides insight into the history of Grein city. Directions:
Starting from the hiking trail starting point Grein directly at the Danube shore, the route initially follows downstream to the mouth of the Greinerbach. From there, continue on the "Hermann-Wenigwieser-Weg" and Greinerbach street. Cross the Greinerbach and before Bauernwieserweg hike on trail no. 7 to the Wassenberger chapel. Then awaits the Marienstein, a natural monument and mystical power place for the first rest. Continue on trail no. 7 to the Hintergruber farm. Cross B119 and the Gießenbach, then hike on trail no. 9 to the Hotel Aumühle. Passing the Aumühle continue on the Gießenbachtal service road northwards. Follow trail no. 11a on the Kleine Gießenbachrunde until you reach Klausmühle. Then on the Danube trail past Mitterlehner farm to the Mondstein. Here is a second rest with a view. The hike continues on the Danube trail past Kollroß chapel and Klein Eder farmhouse. Follow trail 5b on the Frauensteinrunde to the Frauenstein, the last of the three mystical stones. At the Geisberger farmhouse, a detour to Bad Kreuzen is possible; return via the Speckalm snack station (with a 24-hour hiker's fridge) on the Kreuzner Donaublickrunde. Continue on the Danube trail past the Mühlberg rest area (organic shop), then keep right and follow Kreuznerstraße on the Kreuzner Donaublickrunde.
Turn right at Greinerwaldstraße and follow the Austrian Romantic Road to the right turn to Lettental. Continue on the Kreuzner Donaublickrunde past Edenauhof towards Oberkalmberg. At Huber farm in the Hub turn left and follow the Kalmberg service road south. At the crossing with the Austrian Romantic Road turn right and shortly after Scherer farm turn left onto Unterhörnbach. Continue along the road to Unterhörnbach, then turn left towards Letten 8. Before the forested area turn right and follow the Danube trail 1 towards Reitberg Linde (panoramic view and natural monument). Continue on the Reitberg and Gschwendt service roads. Before the Kren chapel turn right from Reitberg service road onto Oberbergen service road and follow Danube trail 1 to the Gobelwarte viewpoint. After a break at Gobelwarte, follow Danube trail 1 again past Labegger farm to Grein. The descent to Grein on Danube trail 1 (Reitsteig) leads over a steep serpentines path with a wonderful view of Grein. The path then leads to Motor skills park Grein and along Kreuznerbach towards Bogenbrücke.
Turn right and pass Grein harbor and the Roman rest area, then exit the city on the Planet path. Directly next to the Danube, follow the towpath towards the bank and cross the Grein Danube bridge. After crossing the bridge, arrive at the hiking info point in Tiefenbach. Here is also the inn Zur Donaubrücke for a short break. In Tiefenbach near the parking, enter Matrassteig 463 or Gipfelstein/Brandstetterkogel path 463a. Following the switchbacks, a left turn appears onto Matrassteig towards Felsentor. Up to Felsentor, a demanding trail with safety ropes awaits, offering unique views over the Danube valley and Grein. Note: the Matrassteigdurchstieg does not lead to Gipfelstein; therefore, return on Matrassteig and at the fork this time take the right path. This route passes the Friedenskreuz uphill to Gipfelstein. Shortly after Gipfelstein, there is a steep descent before the last steep ascent to the shelter at Brandstetterkogel. Finally, descend to Wiesen and cross the Danube with the Danube ferry (9 a.m. - 6 p.m.!). After the ferry ride, return to the starting point (hiking trail starting point Grein Danube shore) and continue on the Grein city walk.
Variant 2 - Matrassteigdurchstieg:
Walk through Matrassteig 463 at Felsentor and thus reach the shelter at Brandstetterkogel or return via Wiesen to Grein using the Danube ferry. Walking Gipfelstein is then not necessary.
Alternative route without ferry:
Outside ferry operating hours, the route can also be hiked, though the duration (+1 hour) and length (+5 km) change. Alternative route: After descending to Wiesen, follow the street to the Danube ferry dock. Turn left at the dock and follow the paved road or Danube bike trail back towards Grein Danube bridge. After about 2 kilometers, cross the Danube bridge and turn right towards Grein. Follow the Danube bike trail on the opposite side of the Danube back to Grein harbor. Then via Bogenbrücke and Planet path return to the start or continue on the Grein city walk.
Grein city walk: This initially leads from the hiking trail starting point at the Danube shore in Grein on the Planet path eastwards directly along the Danube. At the end of the Danube shore, cross B3 and the Greinerbach, past the "Johannes von Nepomuk" statue. Then follow the sidewalk and turn left into the main street. Immediately in the curve is a detour via stairs to Kalvarienberg and the chapel. Follow the signs "Kalvarienberg" or "Gallery in Granite". Staying on the main street, follow it to the junction with Jubiläumsstraße and then turn left towards the town center. Then reach the historic town square with the town hall and historic city theater. Follow the signs to "Greinburg Castle". At the intersection, turn right into Kreuznerstraße and then left in Schlossgasse on a paved path towards Greinburg Castle. A narrow staircase leads left up to Greinburg Castle and then back via the paved road to Greinburgstraße. Turn right and follow Herdmannweg towards Grein public pool. Cross Greinerwaldstraße and turn left before the pool into the small paved road towards the Danube; hike along Kreuznerbach to Motor skills park Grein. Continue to Bogenbrücke at the harbor, then keep left again to reach the promenade and the Planet path. Follow the Danube path on the promenade back to the hiking trail starting point at the Danube shore - completion of the Strudengauer 9er and the hiking marathon.

Dort, wo die Donau Oberösterreich und Niederösterreich trennt, erhebt sich der Brandstetterkogel mit seiner urigen Schutzhütte und dem wunderschönen Ausblick auf das Donaustädtchen Grein. Die kleine Jausenstation zählt zu den reizvollsten Ausflugszielen im Donautal. Attraktiv und bestens markiert sind auch die Wanderwege durch die nahezu unberührten Hangwälder, die gleich neben der Donaubrücke in Tiefenbach ihren Ausgang nehmen.
Lage
Wehrhafte Burgen und prunkvolle Schlösser prägen das nach seinem Hauptfluss benannte Mühlviertel, das sich hier im Strudengau an der Donau bis in den Norden erstreckt. Wie ein kleiner Adlerhorst thront die urige Schutzhütte des ÖTK auf dem Brandstetterkogel auf 532 m Seehöhe. Von der Terrasse öffnet sich ein herrlicher Weitblick in das untere Mühlviertel mit der markanten Kirche St. Thomas am Blasenstein. Auch die Burg Clam lässt sich erblicken und bei klarar Sicht sogar ein Teil von Linz. Direkt zu Füßen liegt der malerische Ort Grein an der Donau (OÖ).
Geschichte
Die Hütte wurde am 26. August 1926 eröffnet und trug den Namen der damaligen Herzogin von Sachsen- Coburg und Gotha: Victoria Adelheid. Diese trug sich bei der Eröffnung ins Gipfelbuch zusammen mit Tochter Sibylle und Sohn Hubert ein. Das erste Gipfelbuch der Brandstetterkogelhütte kann gegen Voranmeldung am Stadtamt Grein eingesehen werden.

Die ganzjährig frei zugängliche Gobelwarte des Österreichischen Touristenklubs (ÖTK-Sektion Strudengau) thront am Gipfel des 484 m hohen Gobel oberhalb der Stadtgemeinde Grein a. d. Donau (Oberösterreich). Die 20 m hohe Aussichtsplattform der Gobelwarte bietet einen herrlicehn Rundumblick vom Schneeberg, über Göller und Ötscher bis hin zum Dachstein.
Auf einer Seehöhe von 484 m bietet die Gobelwarte der ÖTK-Sektion Strudengau einen herrlichen Rundblick. Im Norden auf das Hügelland des Mühlviertels, im Süden auf die Ostalpen vom Ötscher bis zum Dachstein, im Westen auf das Marchland mit Donautal, im Osten auf Grein und den Strudengau. Der Zustieg erfolgt vom romantischen Donaustädtchen Grein aus. Alle Wege sind für Kinder leicht begehbar.
Geschichte
Zum zehnjährigen Gründungsfest der ÖTK-Sektion Strudengau des drittgrößten Alpinvereins, dem Österreichischen Touristenklub, wurde auf der Bockmauer (einem vier Meter hohen Felsen) eine elf Meter hohe eiserne Warte errichtet. Die feierliche Eröffnung fand am 24. Juni 1894 statt. Erbauer der Warte war Anton Meisl, Schlosser- und Kupferschmied-Meister in Grein.
Im Jahre 1926 wurden neue Stufen montiert, bei welchen Arbeiten sich die Herren Emmerich Meisl und Jonke Verdienste erwarben. Im Jahre 1961 wurde das Waldgrundstück um die Warte durch die ÖTK-Sektion Strudengau käuflich erworben. In den Jahren 1988/89 wurde ein neuer Gitterrost, neue Stufen und neue Brüstung auf der Plattform errichtet.
Weil die Sicht durch die Bäume zunehmend eingeschränkt und die 12 m hohe Stahlkonstruktion bereits baufällig war, wurde im Juni 2018 eine neue 21 m hohe Edelstahlkonstruktion errichtet. Die Gesamtkosten betragen 290.000 Euro (Kostenaufteilung: Leader Perg-Strudengau 150.000 Euro, Land OÖ 130.000 Euro, Werbegemeinschaft Donau OÖ 10.000 Euro).

Im Einklang mit der Natur wirtschaften…
ist das Ziel des vom OÖ Naturschutzbund, Bezirksgruppe Machland Nord betreuten Hofes. Zwei Wohnhäuser und diverse Wirtschaftsgebäude zeichnen den Hof aus. Das Areal gliedert sich in Wiesen oder Weiden und Wald. Etwa 20 Hochlandrinder werden in Freilandhaltung gehalten. Jahrtausendelang bewirtschaftete und kultivierte der Mensch das Land im Einklang mit der Natur. Mit diesem Naturwirtschaftshof sollen altes Wissen und alte Bewirtschaftungsmethoden bewahrt werden. Durch eine ökologische schonende Bewirtschaftung kann eine enorme Artenvielfalt und das Landschaftsbild, das den Betrachter erfreut, erhalten werden. Das Wissen um diese Bewirtschaftungsart soll in Form einer Ausbildung zum Naturwirt auch weitergegeben werden.
In der Nähe von Grein trieb einst auch der Teufel sein Unwesen. Was es mit der Geschichte "Die Teufelsmauer" auf sich hat, weiß die Donau-Sage.

Wollsäcke…
Geologisch gehört das Aist-Naarn-Kuppenland, in dem wir uns befinden, zur Großeinheit der Böhmischen Masse und besteht hauptsächlich aus Graniten und Gneisen, dem Kern eines alten Gebirges. Besonders regionaltypisch sind die Fels- und Block gebilde, die durch Verwitterungsprozesse entstanden sind. Oft finden sich an Kuppen, Rücken und Scheiteln Fels- und Blockgebilde. Sie entstehen durch die sogenannte Wollsackverwitterung. Durch sie bleiben abgerundete Blöcke übrig, durch Abtrag des sie umgebenden Materials werden sie freigelegt. Sie sind landschaftsprägende Elemente und wichtiger Lebensraum für Flechten und Moose.
Bei der Wollsackverwitterung dringen chemisch aggressive Lösungen in das Gestein ein und es kommt zu einem Steinzersatz entlang der Ecken und Kanten. Es entstehen abgerundete Steinquader, die von Verwitterungsmaterial umgeben sind. Wird dieses Material abgetragen, bleiben sie als Wollsackblöcke, oft in bizarren Formen, zurück.
Der geheimnisvolle Mondstein hat eine interessante Geschichte - spüren auch Sie den "Zauber des Mondsteins".
The Speck-Alm - the name says it all. However, there is much more to Tanja and Michael Gaßner's farm than just a generational business focussing on pork. The smell of freshly baked wood-fired bread mingles with the clear Danube air every day, while the ringing of cowbells heralds the arrival of guests. It is living values, animal encounters and a daily endeavour to bring their guests closer to nature and the region that have characterised the Speck-Alm near the Wolfsschlucht gorge near Bad Kreuzen for 35 years.
There is only one accommodation on the Gaßner farm: the "Schweinehotel", where around 170 Swabian-Hallis and Edel-Land pigs are reared from fattening to slaughter. There are also cattle, Styrian pinto goats, wild fattened chickens, ducks and quails as well as domestic cats on the Speck-Alm. The farm clearly communicates what it is all about: regional enjoyment that makes the origin of its ingredients transparent. Pork, fresh meat, sausage and meat loaf are processed directly on the farm for the cider tavern, which has been in existence since 1989, and sold on site. Where does all the other food come from? Also from the immediate neighbourhood, of course! However, it is probably the vegetables and herbs that have travelled the shortest distance, as they are lovingly harvested by Tanja in her own vegetable patch and herb garden. In addition to potatoes and carrots, she now also grows cabbage sprouts, cabbage and sweetcorn. "The soil," say Tanja and Michael, "provides us all with a basis for life." They want to pass on their awareness of how food is produced to every guest who visits the farm. If you want to take home something more than just living values, you can visit the Speck-Alm's own farm shop and buy meat and sausage products or bacon and meat dumplings - which are made by hand on the farm.
As an example of sustainable agriculture and regional ties, the Gaßners and their team work every day to bring their guests closer to the diversity and quality of their products and to preserve the tradition of their farm. Everything that cannot be grown on the farm is sourced from small farms in the immediate vicinity.
However, the Speck-Alm not only offers culinary delights, but also plenty to experience! Visitors to the farm can experience farming up close, feed the animals and learn about the production processes and origins of our daily food. Excursions to the Speck-Alm are particularly popular with school classes. The Gaßner family tries to teach pupils about local agricultural products in a fun way. The farm is best reached via the Wolfsschlucht or the Kreuzner-Herzklopfen-Runde, which makes it a popular stopover for hikers in particular.

1. The tours presented for hiking, walking, biking and road biking, mountain biking, motorbiking, horseback riding, climbing, cross-country skiing, and going on skiing and snowshoe tours etc. are to be considered non-paid tour recommendations and only serve as non-binding information. We have no intention of concluding a contract with the users of this website. The utilisation of the data does not lead to the establishment of a contract with us.
The data may only be used for private use; any commercial use is prohibited. In particular, it is not permissible to offer the data on commercially run websites, file-sharing platforms etc. or to use it to develop commercial products. Downloading data does not imply that users are granted rights to the data concerned.
The tour recommendations posted were created with utmost care; nevertheless, we assume no liability for the correctness and completeness of the information.
We point out that neither the tour recommendations included on this website nor the associated data and information were posted by us, but rather by third parties (Art. 16 Austrian E-Commerce Act). We have no influence on whether the details provided (e.g. distance, level of difficulty, change in altitude, description etc.) are authentic, correct and complete. We do not review these third-party contents. For this reason, we assume no liability for the authenticity, correctness and completeness of the information.
Construction-related measures or other influences (e.g. landslides and similar occurrences) can lead to temporary or permanent changes in a route (e.g. loss of a bridge and similar occurrences). Such occurrences can lead to part of the route or the entire route becoming impassable.
The use of the data as well as undertaking (riding, walking, taking etc.) the recommended tours or using the network of paths occurs at users’ own risk and on their authority. In particular, users themselves are responsible for the choice of route, outdoor orientation, adherence to traffic rules, supplies and equipment for tours listed in Point 1 (e.g. bicycle etc.), wearing a helmet, estimating their own fitness, recognising dangers and maintaining an appropriate velocity. We exclude ourselves from any liability whatsoever for damages, in particular accidents, that occur whilst taking part in the recommended tours.
2.Some of the tours lead over roads with normal traffic conditions. Please observe that there is an increased risk which can be avoided by means of appropriate attention and proper estimation and implementation of one’s own abilities. For this reason, please travel a route that is unfamiliar to you slowly and with special care. Pay constant attention to potential dangers and always observe traffic. Do not leave the routes featured in descriptions.
The potential use of private roads, in particular forestry roads and agricultural transport roads, can be subject to legal restrictions, which must be observed and adhered to.
The normal traffic rules apply. Each user (e.g. biker, motorbiker) is responsible for adhering to these rules and maintaining his/her bike/vehicle and its equipment (lights, brakes etc.) in good working order. Each user is also responsible for ensuring that he/she rides at a velocity that is appropriate for the conditions and his/her skill level and for maintaining sufficient distance to the rider in front. We explicitly recommend adjusting velocity to correspond to the respective field of vision, wearing a helmet, using reflective clothing (or similar) and employing bicycle lights in line with regulations.
3.Each tour requires good physical fitness as well as detailed planning. We explicitly recommend only taking the tours in the case of optimal healthiness.
We recommend that you conclude an accident and liability insurance policy. Use an onboard computer that displays the respective kilometres travelled per day and is calibrated for the front wheel.
4.Special for mountain bikers – Fair-play rules:
Mountain biking is one of the most wonderful outdoor leisure-time activities. Whilst biking or on a mountain biking tour, mountains and lakes, meadows and cabins are re-discovered in new ways. A couple of rules for fair play in the forest help to avoid conflicts whilst mountain biking.
a.Pedestrians have the right of way: We are accommodating and friendly to pedestrians and hikers. Upon encountering these fellow travellers, we alert them by using the bicycle bell and slowly overtake them. We avoid paths with heavy pedestrian traffic altogether. Take nature into account: We do not leave refuse behind.
b.The braking distance should be half of the total distance visible: We ride at a controlled pace, are ready to brake and maintain a braking distance half as long as the total distance visible, especially in curves, because we always have to count on obstacles on the path. Damage to the path, stones, branches, wood piles, grazing livestock, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-type forestry machines and authorised vehicles pose dangers that we need to be ready for.
c.Don’t drink and drive!: Do not drink alcohol when mountain biking. Take care at stop-off points (dealing with bike racks, dirty shoes or clothing).
It is obligatory to provide first aid!
d.Marked routes, closed paths and blockades: Keep to the marked routes, observe the blockades and accept that these roads are primarily for agricultural and forestry use!
Blockades can often not be avoided and are in your own interest. Biking beyond the intended path and outside of opening times is punishable and turns us into illegal bikers.
e.We are guests in the forest and behave accordingly, including vis-à-vis forestry and hunting staff. Whilst mountain biking, mobile telephones and music players are forbidden! Biking requires your full attention.
f.Avoid unnecessary noise. Out of consideration to the animals living in the wild, we only bike during full daylight. As a principle, we always wear our helmet (even when riding uphill)! Don’t forget emergency supplies: We always have a repair set and bandages along.
g.Don’t overestimate your skills: We should not overdo it when it comes to biking technique and physical fitness. Take the level of difficulty posed by the route into consideration and make a precise estimate of your experience and skills as a biker (braking, bell, lights)!
h.Close gates: We approach grazing livestock at a walking pace and close every gate behind us. We should avoid causing escape and panic reactions in the animals. Nothing stands in the way of the fun and athletic challenge in the mountains and forests!
i.Traffic rules: The general traffic rules (StVO) apply for all the mountain biking routes and we adhere to them. Our bike therefore needs to be in perfect technical condition and equipped in line with the traffic rules, including brakes, a bell and lights. We inspect and service our mountain bikes regularly anyway.
5.We assume no liability for the contents of external websites; in particular, we assume no liability for their statements and contents. Moreover, we have no influence on the design or contents of the websites to which hyperlinks on guide.oberoesterreich.at lead or from which hyperlinks lead to guide.oberoesterreich.at.
