The Nussbaumweg offers a different focus: it includes a planting of around 100 walnut trees of various varieties, established in 2011. This gives you the choice between a viewpoint with named landscape features and a trail with a specific botanical theme, depending on your interests.

Religious History and Culture

The parish of Nußdorf Am Attersee has existed since at least the 14th century; Nußdorf parish church is dedicated to Saint Maurice. A precisely dated artistic reference is the 1892 image of Mary. It was created after a portrait of Emma Adler (1858–1935), the wife of Victor Adler. Emanuel Oberhauser used this portrait as the model for the Madonna’s face. The parish’s history and the story behind the image offer different ways to explore the town’s religious culture. The parish’s history dates back further than the image of Mary.

A regional tourism brochure from 2024 describes the Ransonnet themed trail, with seven stations providing information about Baron Eugen Freiherr von Ransonnet. Near Nußdorf Am Attersee, a traditional pilgrimage also leads from Wienerroith to the Kronberg Chapel. There is a devotional service at around 8 p.m.; pilgrims pray the rosary along the way and pray for favorable weather and a good harvest.
