Discover Höhnhart: Forests, Trails and Ski Jumping

Höhnhart lies in the northern foothills of the Kobernaußerwald. The varied, agricultural and heavily forested hilly landscape gives the town its own distinctive character. If you are looking for a holiday apartment as a base for active days and regional discoveries, you will find various ways here to combine trails, scenery and culture.

Hiking trails with different highlights

The 10-km Drei Tannen Tour starts at the Höhnhart municipal office and leads through fields and meadows to Europe's most modern junior ski jumping facility. The route continues to the large motor skills park. This allows the tour to combine scenic experiences with notable destinations without restricting you to a single attraction. For a shorter loop, the 5.6-km Herbstheim Tour is available. It also begins at the municipal office, passes the drinking water reservoir and Hochstraßhöhe, runs through Herbstheim and returns to the municipality of Höhnhart.

Höhnhart is also connected to the Marienwanderweg trail. The Flugschanzentour passes the Litzlbauer Chapel and runs via Ainetsreit to the Schmiedbauer Mostschänke tavern. These different routes can help you plan your day: you can choose a specific length or select a tour based on its named stops and scenic impressions.

Mountain bike routes in the Kobernaußerwald

For mountain biking, the KTM Kobernaußerwald Mountain Bike Arena offers a total of 80 km of uniformly signposted routes. The routes run mainly along quiet side roads and forest tracks through the Kobernaußerwald. A circuit can be started in the center of Höhnhart. If you are looking for accommodation for a cycling holiday, this information is particularly helpful when choosing your base and planning individual days of touring.

Ski jumping arena and local history

The Borbet-Allianz-Arena Höhnhart opened in 2009 and comprises three ski jumps designated K-15, K-30 and K-55. You can watch a training session or a Spring Cup there; events take place in both winter and summer. For visitors interested in ski jumping, the arena is a destination in its own right.

The town's history can also be seen in its specific buildings. Höhnhart's St. James Parish Church dates back to an initial church building constructed around 1100 in the Romanesque style and was converted to the Gothic style in 1540. The Hubertus Chapel in Höhnhart was built in 1972. Anyone who would like to discover ecclesiastical buildings alongside nature and sport during their stay can include these stops in their travel plans.

Getting there and further orientation

When travelling from Linz and Vienna, the route leads via the A8 Innkreis Autobahn, the Haag am Hausruck exit, the Rieder Straße B141 and the Höhnharter Straße L503 to Höhnhart.
