Trail description
The hike begins at the Pfarrkirche St. Oswald parish church in Seefeld and leads along the "Kreuzweg" trail to the parish hill ("Pfarrhügel") in Seefeld. From there is continues in a south-easterly direction to the Wildsee lake, which can already be seen from the parish hill. To the west of the lake, follow the path on the shore to the Reither Moor wetlands at the southern end of the lake. Then head back along the "Innsbrucker Straße" road to the pedestrianised area and back to the church in the centre of Seefeld.
Route for wheelchair users
Difficulty level: easy
The route for wheelchair users starts at the car park next to the Wildsee lake. Take the tarmac path for around 350 metres around the northern shore of the lake. At the western shore there are a number of viewing platforms overlooking the lake. At the transition from the trail into the forest there is a short steep section (around seven metres) with a few roots. For tetraplegic wheelchair users, these sections are likely to be difficult to negotiate without help. The trail then continues along the edge of the lake back to the starting point.
Info: The route will post no problems to fit wheelchair users with good mobility. It is also suitable for electric wheelchairs. The only tricky section is the steep pitch at the start of the forest.
