Reischach combines cycling routes, peaceful hiking trails, a swimming lake and historic buildings.

Cycling Routes and Trails in Reischach

There are several clearly distinct routes for cyclists. One cycle path runs along the road from Reischach towards Neuötting and connects with the Inn Valley Cycle Route at Kager. Another cycle path runs from Reischach to Fuchshub and connects with the Rottal Cycle Route. There are also other cycling options in the municipality on roads and paths with little traffic.

The Holzland-Bankerlweg is a 27-kilometre circular route through Erlbach, Perach and Reischach. The Tour de Holzland also passes through Reischach. This cycling route is listed as 36.4 kilometres long, or 41.6 kilometres including the connecting route. When planning the Tour de Holzland, it therefore matters whether you include the connecting route. Zoglerberg, above Reischach, is a viewpoint; panoramic views from there are one of the highlights of the Tour de Holzland. The route format also matters when comparing the two: the Holzland-Bankerlweg is a circular route, while the Tour de Holzland is a cycling route with an additional distance listed for the version including the connecting route.

Hiking Trails, Zoglerberg and the Swimming Lake

If you prefer to get around on foot, Reischach has many peaceful hiking trails that invite you to explore the countryside. The forest and nature trail on Zoglerberg is considered a worthwhile destination at any time of year, while ice skating on Reischach's swimming lake is possible in winter when weather conditions permit. The swimming lake has a water rescue station and a kiosk.

Historic Buildings

The area's building history also offers specific points of interest. The Marienkapelle in Reischach is a Baroque chapel built in 1731. The Hochmühl listed-building ensemble includes a mill and a sawmill, which probably date from around 1860. The two historic sites differ not only in building type but also in the precision of their dating: one has a specific year of construction, while the other is dated approximately.
