Discover Ried in der Riedmark

Ried in der Riedmark combines historic buildings with varied opportunities for hikers and day-trippers. Those planning a trip featuring cultural discoveries, physical activity, and regional highlights will find several different options for planning their days here. When choosing a holiday apartment or holiday house, you can therefore consider whether churches and historic buildings, a hike, or an active cycling tour should be the main focus of your trip.

Historic Places and Religious Sights

One of the prominent buildings in Ried in der Riedmark is Grünau Castle, which is a listed monument. The Catholic parish church of St. Remigius is also a protected historic monument. Both places give the trip a cultural focus without requiring you to commit to just one type of holiday experience.

In Niederzirking, the Catholic filial church of the Assumption of Mary is a protected historic monument. The pilgrimage church of Niederzirking dedicated to the Virgin Mary is also associated with a traditional herb blessing that was celebrated there. Marbach Castle was built in 1706 by the Italian Maderni. Together with the churches, these sites create a historical theme that can serve as a peaceful counterpoint to an active day plan.

Hiking to the Church of St. Mary and the Teufelskanzel

The Ried Circular Trail (R3) is described as an easy hike and passes the old Church of St. Mary in Niederzirking. This provides a route that combines physical activity with a specific cultural connection. Those who want to accommodate different preferences within a travel group can keep the R3 in mind as an option for a more relaxed day of hiking.

The Hochstraßer Circular Trail offers a different focus: it provides access to the Teufelskanzel on foot. The Teufelskanzel itself is a legendary site on a rock in the Hartl district. Near the Teufelskanzel, the “Teufelsblick” project built a viewing platform on the “Vogeltenn.” For your planning, this means you can choose between an easy route with a connection to the churches and an excursion centered on a legendary rock and a viewing platform.

Cycling and Regional Highlights

The area can also be explored as a travel destination by bicycle. The Ried in der Riedmark MTB route is an easy mountain-biking trail that is also largely suitable for gravel bikes and trekking bikes. This description appeals to travelers who do not want to spend their holiday exclusively on foot and who, when looking for accommodation, pay attention to finding a suitable starting point for their planned activities.

A culinary specialty is Buchholzer Bräu, where seven types of beer were developed. This specific regional connection can add a culinary discovery to a trip, especially if you would like to get to know local specialties in addition to churches, trails, and viewpoints.

Which Accommodation Suits Your Travel Plans?
