Discover Kumberg

Kumberg offers a range of ways to spend your stay: time at the swimming lake, sports, hikes in the Schöcklland region, and historical and spiritual landmarks. When looking for a hotel, it helps to first decide which activities matter most to you. Would you mainly like to use the facilities by the water, plan a variety of sports, or focus on hikes and historical destinations?

Swimming Lake and Sports Facilities

The swimming lake in Kumberg has a separate children's pool with treated water and small slides, as well as shaded sunbathing areas and a shade pavilion. There are also sanitary facilities and a varied playground. For planning purposes, you can distinguish between the water and play areas and the shaded spaces for relaxing: depending on what matters to you, you can make the swimming lake a focus of your stay.

The well welt kumberg has six tennis courts, a beach arena with several volleyball courts, a beach soccer court, table tennis and mini golf. It is also the starting and finishing point for hikes in the Schöcklland region. This brings together different ways to stay active: facilities for specific sports and hikes with a set starting and finishing point. If you organize your days around activities, you can consider these as two separate focuses. Check the latest information about the individual facilities before your visit.

History and Special Destinations

A Romanesque predecessor building of the parish church of “Saint Stephen” in Kumberg was already mentioned in 1197. Schloss Kainberg lies north of Kumberg and was converted into a Renaissance castle between 1570 and 1575. The dates refer to different events: for the church, the date marks the mention of its predecessor building; for the castle, it refers to its conversion into a Renaissance castle. This distinguishes an early ecclesiastical reference from a specific Renaissance construction phase.

FriedWald Schöcklland is Austria's first FriedWald and is located in a ten-hectare wooded area at the foot of the Schöckl in Kumberg. Free guided forest tours with FriedWald foresters are offered regularly. If you plan to take a tour, check the dates in advance so that the specific visit fits your travel plans.

The Pope Francis Pilgrimage Trail leads to the church in Kumberg, which is listed as the trail's third stop. This is a clear point of reference for a spiritually themed trip; its designation as the third stop may be relevant when planning around a particular theme.
