Discover Klein Sankt Paul: Hiking, Culture and the Terrassenbad

Klein Sankt Paul combines traces of history with diverse opportunities for active and varied days on holiday. A hiking network spanning more than 100 kilometres, mountain biking trails, a Late Gothic parish church and the Terrassenbad open up a range of travel ideas. If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Klein Sankt Paul, you can therefore plan your stay around your preferred interests: culture, activity, water or insights into regional milk and cheese production.

Historic Places and Special Impressions

The Lachitzhof is more than 500 years old at its core and is probably the oldest house in Klein Sankt Paul. It represents the long history of the village, without requiring you to limit your visit to a single era. The parish church of Klein St. Paul also tells of a distant past. It is a Late Gothic church and is probably built on the foundations of an earlier Romanesque structure. It was first mentioned in a document in 1062.

The parish church also houses the installation “Jacob’s Ladder” by Prof. Werner Hofmeister. For travellers who would like to combine historic architecture with contemporary art, this creates a distinctive cultural highlight. The Quellenkulturpark complements these impressions as an open-access park and offers another opportunity to include culture in your daily plans at your own pace.

Hiking Trails and Mountain Landscapes

The hiking network, with more than 100 kilometres of trails, offers scope for a variety of tour plans. The routes named in connection with Klein St. Paul include the Hemma Pilgrimage Trail and the Geological Nature Trail. The two names point to different ways of discovering the landscape: while the pilgrimage trail takes up the idea of a religiously inspired route, the Geological Nature Trail directs attention to the region’s natural features.

Klein Sankt Paul also offers specific opportunities for mountain biking. The Saualpe provides mountain and forest trails as part of the mountain biking offering in Klein St. Paul. Mountain bikers can also use mountain and forest trails on the Waldkogelzug ridge. If you like to fill your trip with outdoor activity, you should consider when looking for accommodation which of these interests should shape your days. This makes it easier to tailor your holiday apartment search to your personal travel plans, without having to combine individual experiences with one another.

Water and Insights into Milk Production

The Terrassenbad Klein St. Paul has two solar-heated swimming pools. For families who would like to include water alongside hiking and culture in their travel plans, the children’s water slide is a specific feature of the facilities. The swimming pool thus adds its own highlight to the various opportunities that Klein Sankt Paul offers for a varied stay.

The Sonnenalm Dairy Experience Centre offers another excursion idea. There, visitors can look behind the scenes of milk and cheese production. Guided tours are available by prior arrangement. If you would like to experience regional production not only as a culinary topic but also as an activity, this visit is one of the easily planned elements of your trip.

Choose Accommodation to Suit Your Plans

The different themes make Klein Sankt Paul a destination where the choice of holiday apartment can be closely linked to your preferred daily rhythm. Would you mainly like to go hiking, use mountain biking trails, discover historic places or plan a day at the swimming pool with children?
