Discover Behamberg: Trails, Views and Local History

Behamberg can be explored through a range of travel interests: trails through the town centre and along the edge of the forest, a viewpoint above the town, local history and activities at the leisure park. If you are looking for a hotel in Behamberg, these themes can help you picture what the destination has to offer. The options differ depending on whether you want to explore the town, visit a viewpoint or plan a longer route through several municipalities.

Village Loop and Trails Around Behamberg

The Behamberg village loop passes through the town centre and along the forest nature trail, which offers interesting facts and things to learn, especially for children. At the village square, the loop passes a water-spouting lion. If you want to combine the town centre with opportunities to learn about the forest in one outing, you will find both along the same circular trail.

The Daxberg Panorama Trail 335 runs along the edge of the forest around Daxberg. The Mostviertel Ursprungsweg covers a larger area: this 116-kilometre circular route connects Behamberg with eight other municipalities. It is suitable for hikers and cyclists, and its stages are between 18.6 and 28.2 kilometres long. The total distance describes the circular route, while the range of stage lengths refers to individual sections. This gives you a distinction to bear in mind when planning: the route along the edge of the forest shapes the Daxberg trail, while the stage lengths of the Ursprungsweg help you choose your distance.

Views and Local History

From Behamberg town centre, the Leitner-Badhofer-Weg 336 passes the “Mostviertel-Blick” viewpoint. The viewpoint lies above the town and offers views across the Mostviertel and the Mühlviertel as far as the Czech Republic. Mostviertel-Blick is a scenic viewpoint and resting place near the municipality of Behamberg; it is also known as a photo spot. As part of a Landjugend youth project, the panorama was framed in wood. The viewpoint therefore combines the scenery with a distinctive design feature.

St. Martin’s Parish Church stands on elevated ground in the middle of the town. Behamberg’s Topothek makes collected local historical images available on a public web platform. These offer different ways to connect with local history: the church as a building in the town centre, and the Topothek as a digital collection of historical images. If you are interested in the town, you can explore both a specific place in its streetscape and a collection of local images.

Activities at the Leisure Park

The Behamberg leisure park has an indoor ice-stock sport hall with four refrigerated lanes; online reservations are available. Seasonal availability may vary. If you are planning to play ice-stock, check whether reservations are available for your chosen dates. Ziesel driving is also offered at the leisure park. The activity is suitable for people with mobility impairments, including wheelchair users. As operating details may change, it is a good idea to check the latest information before your visit.
