Discover Allerheiligen im Mürztal

When planning a trip to Allerheiligen im Mürztal, you can first decide what you want to focus on during your stay: hiking, cycling, or a visit inspired by the spring and local history. Each topic offers different points of reference. The 3-Täler hiking trail leads to the town center, the hike to the Schwarzkogel starts at the Eibeggsattel, and the Mürztal Cycle Path R5 is a cycling route with its own distance and difficulty rating. Sauerbrunn in Jasnitz and the parish church of Allerheiligen also offer historical points of interest. These differences can help you tailor your plans to the activities you want to enjoy during your trip.

Sauerbrunn and historical connections

Sauerbrunn in Jasnitz has been known since the 18th century as a calcium hydrogen carbonate spring. Its carbonated water draws visitors from near and far. The type of spring and its long-known history lend the place two distinct points of interest: for a nature-focused visit, the water’s classification is relevant; for a historical perspective, its early renown is of interest. Around 1928, the municipality of Allerheiligen, as it was then, repaired the Sauerbrunn, which was in need of repairs, in response to public interest.

The parish church of Allerheiligen is mentioned around 1154 and is dated to the second half of the 15th century. The dates answer different historical questions: the first is an early mention, while the second places it in a particular period. If you are interested in the history of the area, you can distinguish between these reference points rather than reading them as a single construction date.

Hiking: route, start and finish

The 3-Täler hiking trail passes through Edelsdorf and Jasnitz and continues to the town center of Allerheiligen. Its endpoint is therefore specific: if you are looking for a hiking trail that finishes in the center, this information gives you a clear point of reference. The trail can be reached via the Allerheiligen/Mürzhofen exit from the S6, followed by the signs to Allerheiligen. Two different details can help with your planning: the route through the named places and the signposting for the drive there. Check the signs before you set out, as they may change.

The hike to the Schwarzkogel starts at a different point: the Eibeggsattel. It can be reached from Allerheiligen im Mürztal and Breitenau am Hochlantsch via a narrow mountain road; check the road conditions before driving. From the summit, you can enjoy panoramic views of the Mürztal, the Hochschwab and the Eisernen Alpen, with the mountains of the Mürzer Oberland to the north and the Graz Mountains, including the Hochlantsch, to the south. When choosing between the hikes, you can therefore consider their destinations: the 3-Täler hiking trail ends in the town center, while the Eibeggsattel is the starting point for the Schwarzkogel hike.

Cycling and trip planning

For cycling, the Mürztal Cycle Path R5 is another point of reference: it is an easy, 68.0 km cycle route. Its distance and difficulty rating provide a concrete basis for comparing cycling options, while the hiking options differ mainly in their routes, start points and endpoints. When planning your trip, you can first decide whether you would rather spend your time on a cycling route or at one of the named hiking destinations.
