This hike takes you to the oldest preserved wooden church in Austria – through shady forest, past blueberry bushes, and with wide views over the Salzburg region. Ideal for hot days, pleasant to walk, and without difficult technical demands.
Start is at the Gasthaus Zur Einkehr Wasenmoos. You first follow the road you came on back for about 500 meters before turning left into Kolomansstraße. After another 300 meters, turn left again and now hike up the Thalgauberg. After about 2 kilometers you reach the forest edge – from here a shady forest path leads you through the quiet nature. About 600 meters later, a marked forest path branches left towards Kolomanskirche. Especially in summer, it’s worth a close look here: wild blueberries grow along the path, offering a small culinary highlight at the roadside.
The path finally leads back to a road, which you follow to the right uphill to Kolomanskirche. The church lies at 1,114 m and was built in 1658. It is dedicated to Saint Koloman, an Irish prince who traveled on a pilgrimage through the country and rested at the present Kolomansberg. The atmosphere around the small church is special: quiet, rich in history – and with fantastic views of the surrounding mountains. At the Gasthaus zur Einkehr Wasenmoos you can refuel wonderfully with regional delicacies.
At the start of the hike, follow the road you came by car on back about 500 m before turning left into “Kolomansstraße.” Follow this again for about 300 m before turning left. On this road, go up the Thalgauberg until after about 2 km you reach the forest edge. From here, follow the forest road through the woods, ideal for especially hot days. After another 600 m, a forest path branches left towards “Kolomanskirche.” In the right season, blueberries line the path and you can refresh yourself with the delicious berries. Soon the forest path leads back to a road, which you follow (to the right) the last meters uphill to Kolomanskirche. Worth knowing: Kolomanskirche is the oldest wooden church in Austria, built in 1658 and dedicated to St. Koloman. An Irish prince who traveled through Austria on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land and rested on the Kolomansberg.
From Eugendorf, follow the Thalgauer Landesstraße towards Thalgau. You will pass the Eugendorf district Neuhofen and the Römergolf golf club. After about 2.5 km, take the first exit at the roundabout towards the motorway. After about 700 m, do not take the motorway exit but turn right towards Irlach. Follow the road for about 550 m and then turn left towards the Thalgau ski lift. Follow this road about 3.5 km to the “Gasthaus Zur Einkehr Wasenmoos.” The gravel area is also the parking lot.
Bus line 140 to Thalgau Mitte - from there about an 8-minute walk to Thalgau Schule, from there with line 148 to Thalgau Hörandl - about a 5-minute walk to the route start
