Hönigtal: Way of the Cross, Market and Taggerwaldweg

For planning a trip to Hönigtal, you can distinguish between several specific themes: the Taggerhof as the venue for the Schloss-Spiele Reinthal, religious culture at Kalvarienberg & Kreuzweg, and the Regional Market Square as the starting point of the Taggerwaldweg. Other points of interest include the felt art hiking trail and the Hönigtaler Stub'n in Kainbach bei Graz. These interests range from event culture and religious history to forests, art, markets and places to eat. When looking for a hotel, you can first decide which occasion or theme you want to shape your stay around.

Event Venue and Way of the Cross

The Taggerhof in Hönigtal is the venue for the Schloss-Spiele Reinthal. If the Schloss-Spiele are the reason for your trip, check the event dates in advance and plan your travel dates accordingly. The Kalvarienberg & Kreuzweg begins in Milchgraben and comprises 15 stations, from the Last Supper to the Resurrection. It offers a religious narrative arc, while the Taggerhof is connected to the Schloss-Spiele as an event venue. Its starting point in Milchgraben also gives you a specific location to take into account when planning.

Market Square and Taggerwaldweg

At the Regional Market Square in Hönigtal, the weekly routine and symbolism come together. A farmers' market is held there every Friday afternoon; check the market day for the season before your visit. At the same time, the square symbolizes one of the four gateways to the Hügelland. The market is a recurring occasion, while the gateway motif is a symbolic reference to the Hügelland. The Regional Market Square is also the starting point of the Taggerwaldweg. If you are planning a Friday visit, two distinct points of interest come together at the same place: the afternoon market and the start of the trail.

Forest and Art on the Taggerwaldweg

The Taggerwaldweg passes through forests. In Kainbach bei Graz, the felt art hiking trail turns one section of the Taggerwaldweg into an art exhibition. This lets you distinguish the trail's forest setting from the art theme of a particular section. If you want to take in both the scenery and the art during your trip, this is a specific thematic connection: the exhibition is part of one section of the Taggerwaldweg, not a description of the entire trail.

Places to Eat and Getting There

The Hönigtaler Stub'n is a traditional wine tavern in Kainbach bei Graz serving regional hot and cold dishes. Check the current opening arrangements before visiting. Kainbach bei Graz is located in the Hügel- & Schöcklland and within the „Grüngürtel um Graz“ landscape protection area. This means your planning can take both a specific place to eat and the municipality's landscape setting into account.

Regional bus route 420 serves the Hönigtal Kirchstrasse and Gasthof Großschedl stops. Check the current connections and service information before travelling; the route number and stop names are specific starting points for planning your journey.
