Description
The Gaminger GeBIERgsweg trail has 18 stations where you can learn interesting facts about liquid gold, which was also recommended by Hildegard von Bingen and Paracelsus to restore and strengthen health. "Beer is a divine medicine against illness", as Paracelsus defined it.
Garnished with a variety of hands-on stations and lots of tips, the GeBIERgsweg is a welcome change for interested hikers and beer fans.
A giant beer barrel, hop scaffolding, barley field, viewing platform and a yeast sculpture make the GeBIERgsweg an eventful and exciting hike. At two beer stations, you can print out a voucher for benefits from Gaminger GeBIERgsdorf partners!

Route description GeBIERgsweg Gaming (Krügerl-Runde)
The starting point of the path is a giant beer barrel in Kartausenpark, which, fitting to the region, was designed from iron by the Ybbsitz blacksmith Franz "Joe" Wahler.
The path leads past the ring wall of Kartause Gaming, further to the Kartausenblick and the Kalvarienberg. The castle pond is also a worthwhile stop, until you can refresh yourself at the well-stocked beer fountain at Weiglteich – naturally with Kartausenbräu and Erzbräu from the two Gaminger breweries. Organic juices from the region are healthy thirst quenchers for the little ones and can also be found in the perfectly chilled fountain. And how about a snapshot? At the photo point by the fountain, you have the opportunity to do so!
Besides the extensive "KRÜGERL-RUNDE" (6 km, walking time 2 hrs.) described here, there is also the shorter "SEIDEL-RUNDE" (3 km, walking time 1 hr.) to choose from. The starting point is also the giant beer barrel in Kartausenpark. If you want to go a bit "higher", then the Erzbräu on the Grubberg is a worthwhile destination, and after 9 km you truly deserve a hearty sip.
