Enjoying Running: Maria Taferl
Tour Starting from Hotel Schachner
The Schachner family's "Krone & Kaiserhof" in Maria Taferl is recommended as one of the best vacation addresses on the Danube. Culinary guests have always been in good hands here anyway. The lift ride up to the terrace of the Sky Lounge is an experience in itself, offering breathtaking views across the Danube and far into the Alpine foothills. Just a few kilometers from the Wachau, the two hotels offer cozy comfort. Panoramic and Premium bon-vivant rooms with Danube views, indoor penthouse pool (11 x 5 m) with whirlpool and sunbathing area, outdoor pool (20 x 10 m) in its own large park, aroma grotto, sauna, organic herbal sauna, fitness room, solarium and massages round off the offer. The running route starts below the Hotel Schachner - Krone and leads around the idyllic village of Maria Taferl and the golf course.

The start and finish of this varied 3,880 m loop are at the garden exit of the Hotel Krone Schachner.
With a magnificent view of the Danube, we run off to the left. After 380 m we turn right and run below the hotel on slightly sloping terrain in the forest. After exactly 1 km we briefly come to asphalt and run slightly uphill. After just over 100 m, we turn left onto the hiking trail and continue our relaxed walk on varied terrain. At the end of the path, we turn left and walk 200 m on asphalt. We continue around the golf course.
At km 3, we have two route options:
