    This DUR connecting path takes us via Neuhofen to Mauer. This place is known for its famous church with a wooden carved altar. From here we continue hiking to the Roman Bridge and over the Hochstraße to Gerolding. This connecting DUR can be ideally combined with DUR 5, DUR 6, and DUR V1.

    Unfortunately, there are no fairy tales or legends along this DUR. Nevertheless, we recommend the following book:
    In the Realm of the Unicorn - Fairy Tales and Legends from Dunkelsteinerwald
