Steyrling: Hiking, Cycling and Culture
Accommodation in Steyrling
Steyrling offers several specific starting points for a stay: hikes with named destinations, paths in the Brunnental, cycling tours and sites of cultural and historical interest. If you are looking for a hotel in Steyrling, you can start planning by focusing on the theme you want to shape your time here. The options range from a circular route that returns to the village to hikes with summit views over the Kremstal.
Hikes with destinations and views
One hike from Steyrling follows the Pastorensteig and Kaltauer Graben to the pyramid on the Spitzmauer. Another hike via the Pastorensteig leads to a summit with panoramic views over the Kremstal. The two descriptions emphasize different things: one names a specific destination, the pyramid, while the other highlights the panoramic views. When planning, you can therefore choose between a route with a named destination and a hike focused on the views.
Brunnental and cycling tours
Another focus is the Brunnental. The path through the valley runs alongside the Steyrling River. The Pyhrn-Priel Panorama Cycling Tour crosses the old railway bridge into the Brunnental and the village of Steyrling. The Klaus stage of the Steyrtal Cycle Path reaches Steyrling as its stage destination. These offer different points of reference when choosing a cycling tour: Steyrling is the destination of the Klaus stage, while the panorama cycling tour crosses the bridge into the Brunnental.
Circular route and bathing pond
The Fischbach circular route starts opposite the Raiffeisenbank in Steyrling, passes the Steyrling bathing pond and then returns to the village. The bathing pond is a bathing facility. If you plan to stop for a swim rather than just pass by, check the latest operating information before your visit.
Church, chapel and local history
The Catholic parish church of Steyrling is dedicated to the “Immaculate Conception of Mary.” According to the Federal Monuments Authority inventory dated June 23, 2026, both the church and the Moser Chapel in Steyrling are protected as monuments by decree. The parish church’s religious dedication and the monument protection of both sites are therefore among the village’s cultural points of interest.
The village’s earlier history includes a mention of a glassworks on the Zösenbach at the beginning of the 17th century. Michael Piesslinger from Steyrling was one of the region’s more significant scythe producers. These two historical subjects emphasize different things: the glassworks represents an early mention of glassmaking, while Piesslinger represents the regional significance of scythe production. Along with the church and chapel, you can include the village’s history of trades in your stay.
Church service and winter ice-stock sport
A Holy Mass is scheduled at the parish church on Sundays at 10:00 a.m. Check the time in advance if you plan to attend a service. There is a lane for traditional winter ice-stock sport at the Klausner Wirt in Steyrling. If you plan to include this activity in your stay, ask in advance whether it will be available on your chosen date.
