Altarm Loop Trail Wallsee

Highlight • Trail

This circular route is not without good reason very popular. It is a highlight in every season. For walking, hiking or running. In spring you can hike through a sea of wild garlic and in summer the cool alluvial forest provides pleasant shade. But even beyond that, the path is lovingly laid out and offers a lot to discover. Officially, the circular route starts in the town center, where you can also park for free. If there is no free parking space here, you can also park down by the Danube and join the circular route from there. If you have time, you should still take the town center with you on your round, because it is incredibly beautiful!
The path around the old arm is a well-prepared footpath that leads through a diverse meadow landscape. If you are looking for a fast nature adventure, this is the place for you.
In summer, too, I recommend trying a different kind of oxbow tour:

With the SUP it is a real adventure here on the water. As soon as the view of Wallsee disappears around the bend, you have the feeling of being in untouched wilderness here on the water.

Bridges in the Riverside Forest

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

The footpaths through the floodplain forest are not only practical, they also give the entire hike around the old arm a more exciting character.

Wild Garlic Meadows

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

We were here around Easter time. You could smell it. The wild garlic could not be overlooked. There was no room for other plants at this time. Wild garlic as far as the aug3 reaches.

Panoramic view of Schloss Wallsee and the Danube

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Danube oxbow near Wallsee is a special natural gem. A bridge connects the village to the opposite bank and offers a magnificent view of the calm waters, the small marina, and the water sports activities. This section is a particular highlight for cyclists – the path over the bridge invites you to take a relaxing break with a view of the Danube.
