This hiking trail starts at the parking at the cemetary of Senftenberg in Lower Austria's Kremstal region.
From there you cross the river Krems…
and walk through a part of Imbach that is called "Hofstatt".
Later you continue walking alongside the river Krems and pass a wayside cross that reminds of all people that died in the river.
Right before the Penn factory, you turn left and cross the river Krems again.
After that you cross the main road and walk through the village "Imbach", a catastral community of the market town Senftenberg. At the end of the street you turn right.
You will then reach a square called "Platzl" (an Austrian expression for a small square). Right before the wayside cross you turn left.
You will then leave the dwelling area and get into the vineyards. Through the vineyards you will now walk up a mountain called "Pfeningberg".
On your ascent you will pass the Lackenkreuz. "Lacke" is the Austrian word for "puddle". It is said that once upon a time, a woman broke into a frozen puddle at this place and died of hypothermia.
At the fork you chose the left path.
Soon you can enjoy a wonderful view over the vineyards on your left hand side.
At the next fork you chose the left path.
You will then pass this barn.
After a left bend you will have a view on Stratzing.
Then you walk down through the vineyards. At the end of the path you turn left.
Soon you will pass the motocross track.
After some curves you will see the "Zeininger-Marterl" on your right side. This wayside shrine reminds of a farmer called Zeininger who had a fatal accident with his tractor at this place.
Finally you come back to Imbach again and turn right into a street called "Pfeningberg".
Right before the medieval street you turn left.
This street leads to the main road. Now you first cross the main road and then cross the river Krems. Afterwards you turn right.
Now you walk back alongside the river Krems on ways that you already know from the beginning of the walk.
After crossing the river Krems you walk back to the parking at the cemetary again.
