Reischach: Cycling Routes, Swimming Lake and Historic Sites

Reischach offers specific reasons to enjoy active days: cycling routes, peaceful walking trails, a swimming lake and historic buildings. When choosing where to stay, you can decide whether to focus on bike tours, time in nature by the water or traces of the past. These different highlights help you tailor your stay to your own interests.

Cycling Routes and Trails Around Reischach

A cycling route leads from Reischach towards Neuötting and connects to the Inn Valley Cycle Path at Kager. Another runs from Reischach to Fuchshub, where it connects to the Rottal Cycle Path. There are also many other cycling options on low-traffic roads and trails. The two routes connect at different points, Kager and Fuchshub; there are also other cycling options to choose from in the municipality.

The Holzland Bankerl Trail is a 27-kilometre circular route through Erlbach, Perach and Reischach. The Tour de Holzland also passes through Reischach and is 36.4 kilometres long, or 41.6 kilometres with the access route. The two figures distinguish the tour without and with the access route. If you compare distances, this makes it easy to tell the shorter circuit through three towns from the longer Tour de Holzland.

Zoglerberg is a viewpoint above Reischach. On the Tour de Holzland, the panoramic view from here is one of the highlights. The forest and nature trail at Zoglerberg is also considered a worthwhile destination at any time of year. In addition, many peaceful walking trails invite you to explore the local landscape. The viewpoint, nature trail and network of paths each offer a different reason to spend time outdoors.

Swimming Lake and Seasonal Activities

The Reischach swimming lake has a kiosk and a water rescue station. It is worth checking the current conditions in advance before visiting. In winter, you can also go ice skating there when the weather is suitable. The season therefore makes a practical difference to your plans: ice skating is explicitly dependent on suitable weather conditions.

Chapel and Mill Complex

The Marienkapelle in Reischach is a Baroque chapel dating from 1731. Another historic feature is the Hochmühl complex, which includes a mill and a sawmill that probably date mainly from around 1860. The precisely dated chapel thus contrasts with the more tentatively dated history of the mills. Both sites reflect different aspects of Reischach’s historic buildings.

Getting There and Finding Your Way

The B588 federal highway between Altötting and Eggenfelden runs through Reischach; the A94 motorway is 5.5 kilometres from the town. This means the town is connected to the federal highway, while a separate distance is given for the motorway. Check the specific route before setting off, as the road network may change.
