The market town of Altenmarkt lies in the valley of the Triesting, which also forms the southern border of the Vienna Woods Biosphere Reserve. This is the largest closed deciduous forest area in Europe. To the north of the Triesting, the hiking options typical of the Vienna Woods predominate over gentle hills, through deciduous forests, across meadows and past individual farmsteads. The best starting point for these well-developed hiking trails is on the Hafnerberg.
In addition to enjoying nature, it is also the sacred buildings on the Via Sacra that attract many visitors to Altenmarkt. There are three pilgrimage churches (Klein Mariazell, Hafnerberg and Altenmarkt) in the municipality and they are connected by a hiking trail with a varied landscape. There are many mystical places around Hafnerberg and Nöstach, places of power that are also worth a visit and some of which can be explored individually.
The town of St. Corona is located in the middle of the wooded area of the Schöpfl and can be quickly climbed from here.
The hike up the Schöpf offers a short climb up the highest mountain in the Vienna Woods to the “Matraswarte” observation tower. From here you can enjoy a 360° panorama that stretches from the Tullner Feld, across Vienna and the Vienna Basin to the Schneeberg and Ötscher. It is only a few steps from the observation tower to the Schöpfl-Schutzhaus, where you can have a cozy break.
