Rinn – Skiing, Cross-Country Skiing and Tobogganing

Winter sports and trails around Rinn

The Archenstadllift Rinn is designated as a ski area for children and beginners. The facilities include a Snow & Fun Park with a variety of obstacles specially designed for children. When choosing a ski resort, this clear classification is more important than a general designation as a winter sports destination: it describes which target groups are explicitly addressed at the local lift. The Panoramaloipe offers two different types of tracks. The diagonal track is intended for classic cross-country skiing, while the skating track is prepared for the parallel gliding technique. This allows you to pay closer attention when planning to which technique you or your travel group would like to use. The Panoramaloipe runs from the start opposite the Archenstadllift car park along sunny meadows towards Judenstein. The Rinner Alm toboggan run also has a clearly described route. The ascent follows a separate, wide winter hiking trail that is separate from the toboggan run. In addition, the hike from Rinn to the Rinner Alm begins shortly after the golf club and leads steadily uphill through the forest. At the Rinner Alm, hikers can enjoy regional delicacies for refreshment during their hike. For planning your day, tobogganing and hiking can therefore be regarded as different trail options without equating the two routes.

Landscape, golf and the character of the village

The golf course in Rinn offers panoramic views of the Nordkette. This extends from the Wetterstein massif across the Northern Limestone Alps to the mountain range of the Wilder Kaiser. The golf course is therefore a prominent vantage point within the described landscape. The Speckbacherweg passes by this golf course. Cultural points of orientation include the parish church of St. Andrew the Apostle, the pilgrimage church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary in Judenstein, and the War Memorial Chapel of Our Lady of Sorrows on the Rinnerberg. The three religious buildings are protected monuments, although on different legal grounds: the parish church and the chapel are protected as monuments by ordinance. The pilgrimage church is protected as a monument on the basis of an official decision pursuant to Section 3.

FAQ

What is special about the parish church of St. Andrew the Apostle in Rinn?

The church is a Rococo church with ceiling paintings by the Giner brothers. It is also protected as a monument by ordinance. The architecture and protection status are therefore two separate characteristics of the building.

When was the pilgrimage church in Judenstein built?

The pilgrimage church in Judenstein was built in 1670 by Dr. Guarinoni. The church also contains a stone said to symbolize atonement and forgiveness towards Judaism.

What does the ritual murder legend in Judenstein say?

The ritual murder legend tells of the ritual murder of a child by Jewish merchants. This story is historically unfounded and is one of the antisemitic prejudices. Its origins and dissemination form part of the historical and theological debate in Judenstein; an information panel about it stands in the entrance area of the pilgrimage church.

What do the former panels in the pilgrimage church document?

The panels previously installed in the pilgrimage church of the Visitation of the Virgin Mary document the development of the church's engagement with this chapter of local and church history. They therefore form part of the historical contextualization of the site and not of a current events program.

When and where does the Christmas market in Judenstein take place?

The Christmas market in Judenstein traditionally takes place on the second Sunday of Advent in the square in front of the church in Judenstein, Rinn.
