Tips from the Community

May 9, 2026, Beech Forest on Schlossberg

The beech forest at Schlossberg is a valuable natural forest reserve, particularly known for its structure and species-rich flora. It offers habitat for diverse forest communities, often on poorer silicate substrates, and is scenically attractive. Hikes in this area are popular, for example, around the Türkensturz near Seebenstein.

The tower of the Turk's fall collapsed. With it, the crescent moon at the top also fell into the depths (the district papers reported). Now the crescent could be found. GLEISSENFELD (ts/e_peinsipp). The Turk's Fall is a landmark that can be seen from afar for the nature park and the hiking area with historical significance. But recently part of the ruin, which was artificially created over 200 years ago, collapsed. Parts of the boulders rolled through the forest to the hiking trails that began in the valley. Now the long-lost crescent that sat at the top of the Turk's Fall Tower could be handed over to the community again.

July 31, 2021 - The castle is impressive even from the outside. During a guided tour you can also get to know the inside of the castle, which is very interesting. The visit of the building, with the courtyards and the well-appointed interiors, is highly recommended.
