Discover Alberndorf in der Riedmark

Alberndorf in der Riedmark combines marked hiking trails with historic architecture, cycling experiences and regional enjoyment. Those looking for a holiday apartment or holiday home can tailor their travel plans to very different interests: a manageable hiking route, the special features of the parish church, the Roadlberg trails or a guided tour with tasting.

Hiking between the nature trail and local history

There are 15 marked hiking trails in Alberndorf in der Riedmark. One clearly defined tour is the Biblischer Wanderweg A9, which is 3.50 km long. The Hadersdorf dry-stone wall is connected to a nature trail on hiking route A3. This allows different priorities to be set when planning: A9 represents a compact route, while the area around Hadersdorf combines nature observation with an exploration of a special structure. For families with different preferences, it may make sense not to limit the day's plans to just one activity, but to alternate between a hike, a cultural destination and a culinary stop.

Castle, palace and parish church

Riedegg Castle was first mentioned around 1150 and was converted into a palace in the 16th century. When visiting Riedegg Palace and castle ruins, you can also see the palace chapel and a horse staircase. This makes the site a worthwhile part of a trip focused on historic rooms and different phases of construction.

The parish church of Alberndorf also features distinctive details. It is classified as Neoclassical, a cubic style influenced by Vienna, and has a double dome vault in the nave. At the centre of the altar is a late Gothic Madonna dating from 1520. The four bells of Alberndorf Parish Church were cast in 1845 at the Hollereder foundry in Linz. Together, these elements create a cultural walk in which the church's style, furnishings and history each provide their own point of interest.

The Alberndorf Cultural Days, or AKuT for short, offer another cultural dimension. They take place every year and enrich summer in Alberndorf with their varied programme. Those who choose their travel dates accordingly can combine their stay with the cultural programme on offer at that time.

Cycling routes and enjoyment in Alberndorf

The Roadlberg trails are located both in Ottenschlag im Mühlkreis and in Alberndorf in der Riedmark. Private individuals and local clubs can use them all year round and free of charge, provided they follow the fair play rules. Route 117 Verbindung Roadlberg-Trails passes the Hadersdorf natural stone wall. This route therefore combines the cycling offering with views of the Hadersdorf natural stone wall.

The Peter Affenzeller Whisky Distillery Experience and Enjoyment World in Alberndorf in der Riedmark offers an experience focused on enjoyment. The distillery offers guided tours with tastings of whisky and other spirits. This complements hiking days and cultural events with an experience centred on production and tasting.

The right accommodation for your travel plans

When looking for accommodation in Alberndorf in der Riedmark, you can use your preferred holiday focus as a guide. Someone who primarily wants to explore marked trails will plan differently from someone who wants to combine the castle ruins, parish church, cultural days, cycling tours and distillery. A holiday apartment or holiday home then becomes the starting point for planning each day according to personal preferences, without requiring a specific location or particular amenities.

When travelling from Linz, the route follows the A7 towards Praha/Freistadt to the Gallneukirchen exit, then continues along the B125 through Gallneukirchen and onwards via the turn-off to Alberndorf. This information helps you take the journey into account when selecting and scheduling your trip.
