Discover Retschitz

If you are looking for a hotel in Retschitz, you can plan your trip around two specific interests: the Hoch-St.-Paul-Weg and the winter activities at Simonhöhe. The trail starts in Retschitz at GH Reid'nwirt and leads to the Simonhöhe ski area. To help you decide, set a clear priority: should the trail shape your stay, or would you like to include seasonal winter activities?

Hoch-St.-Paul-Weg: start, destination and parking

Starting at GH Reid'nwirt gives the Hoch-St.-Paul-Weg a specific starting point in Retschitz. Parking is available at Gasthaus Reid'nwirt for visitors to the trail. If you are arriving by car, you can include this option in your plans; check the parking situation before setting off, as it may change. The start and destination answer different questions when it comes to finding your way: the trail begins at the inn and leads to the Simonhöhe ski area. If you want to identify the trailhead first, Reid'nwirt is the starting point; Simonhöhe is the trail's destination. This way, you can keep the starting point and destination in mind as two separate parts of your day's plans.

Views and visible landmarks

The Hoch-St.-Paul-Weg also offers views of Lake Urbansee. This gives you a specific viewpoint to consider when planning your hike. The Filialkirche Hoch St. Paul, which is visible from afar, is a separate feature. The trail offers views of Lake Urbansee; the church is a landmark visible from far away. If you like choosing excursions for their visual appeal, these details speak to different interests: views of Lake Urbansee on the one hand, and a church building visible from afar on the other. When planning, you can consider whether the view or the building is the more distinctive attraction for you.

Winter activities at Simonhöhe

A recurring winter activity at Simonhöhe is floodlit skiing at Hocheck. Schedules vary by season. If you would like to include this activity in your stay, check the schedule for your preferred dates. This lets you plan your travel dates around the seasonal offering. The Hoch-St.-Paul-Weg leads to the Simonhöhe ski area; floodlit skiing at Hocheck is a separate option to consider when planning for winter. For the hike, the start and destination help you find your way; for the skiing, the specific schedule is the practical point of reference. Floodlit skiing means skiing under artificial lighting and makes the type of activity clear.

For a winter-focused trip, take the seasonal schedule into account; when planning a hike, use the starting point at Reid'nwirt, the destination at Simonhöhe and the view of Lake Urbansee as points of reference.
