Hiking through Edelsdorf, Jasnitz and Allerheiligen
The 3-Täler hiking trail connects several named places on one hiking route: It leads through Edelsdorf and Jasnitz to the center of Allerheiligen. This makes the trail easy to take into account when planning, without reducing the route to a single starting point. For travel to the trail, the Allerheiligen/Mürzhofen exit of the S6 is indicated; from there, follow the signs to Allerheiligen.
When choosing accommodation, you can include this trail as one of your planned day-trip destinations and consider the route via the named local sections. The Sauerbrunn spring in Jasnitz also offers a separate cultural and natural-history attraction: its carbonated water draws people from near and far.
The Sauerbrunn spring and historical traces
The Sauerbrunn spring in Jasnitz is a calcium hydrogen carbonate mineral spring known since the 18th century. Its significance therefore extends beyond being merely a place name. The former municipality of Allerheiligen repaired the Sauerbrunn, which was in need of repairs, around 1928 because of the public interest. The date is deliberately qualified with “around.”
The parish church of Allerheiligen also offers a historical point of reference. It is mentioned around 1154 and is assigned to the second half of the 15th century. Anyone interested in regional history can include the Sauerbrunn and the church as distinct focal points in their stay: here, a mineral spring known for centuries; there, a sacred building with an early mention and a later chronological classification.
The Schwarzkogel and the Mürztal cycle path R5
The hike to the Schwarzkogel begins at the Eibeggsattel. It can be reached from Allerheiligen in the Mürztal and from Breitenau am Hochlantsch via a narrow mountain road. The drive to the starting point is therefore part of planning the excursion. From the summit of the Schwarzkogel, you can enjoy a mountain panorama of the Mürztal, the Hochschwab, the Eisener Alps, the mountains of the Mürz Upper Country to the north, and the Graz Mountainland with the Hochlantsch to the south.
The Mürztal cycle path R5 offers another form of activity. The cycle path is classified as easy and is 68.0 km long. These details help you plan a cycling tour differently from a hike to the Schwarzkogel: here, the specified length and classification as an easy cycle path are decisive, while at the Schwarzkogel the starting point at the Eibeggsattel and the panorama are the main focus.
Ciders, juices and Buschenschank
The Streuobsthof Weissenbacher is part of the regional character of Allerheiligen. Its Mostothek offers single-variety ciders, freshly pressed juices, fruit brandies and liqueurs directly from the farm. Old orchard varieties and wild fruits are used. This allows you to complement your stay with culinary experiences without equating the food and drink options with the hiking or cycling tours.
The Moststubn at the Streuobsthof Weissenbacher offers a Buschenschank experience on some summer weekends. This time frame is important for your planning. When looking for accommodation, you can consider such seasonal offerings as a separate item on your itinerary alongside the permanently described landscapes and local attractions.
