Meggenhofen can be explored through its natural surroundings, architectural history and recurring vintage car event. The natur.spiel.park combines play and relaxation; the Meggenhofen Theater and the parish church add a historical dimension. The Landl Rally gives your stay a focus tied to a specific date. This brings together different travel ideas: enjoying nature outdoors, exploring cultural history and visiting an event centered on classic cars. You can choose which one shapes your stay based on your preferred travel dates and interests.

Nature at the natur.spiel.park

The natur.spiel.park includes a willow maze, a small observation tower and a fish ladder that runs through the entire park. The grounds offer the chance to experience nature up close. If you want to include the outdoors in your travel plans, you can consider the park as a nature-focused destination in its own right, alongside the historical attractions.

Theater and architectural history

The Meggenhofen Theater is housed in a 450-year-old farmhouse. The former Kircheckerhof was converted in 1968 by its owner, Grete Payrhuber, and the municipality of Meggenhofen into one of Upper Austria’s first open-air theaters. The age of the farmhouse and the year it was converted mark two distinct periods: the older architectural setting and its transformation into a theater. This gives the theater’s history a direct connection to the history of the town.

The parish church of St. Martin adds a late Gothic building to this historical focus. It probably dates from the 14th or 15th century. Together, the theater and the church offer two different ways to explore the past: the conversion of a farmhouse and a building with late Gothic features.

The Landl Rally and local routes

The Landl Rally has been held since 1989. Every year, over three days in August, it offers the chance to see up to 1,000 vintage cars around the parish rectory. The dates and scale may vary from one edition to the next. For planning purposes, the key detail is the three-day event in August; the route offers a different focus: it is around 100 kilometers long and runs through the Landl region. Route details may also vary with each edition. If you would like to combine your stay with the event, check the dates for the relevant edition in advance.

For a hike, the Wildhagerweg is a clearly measured route, at 2.50 km long. The Theaterweg leads to Meggenhofen. These details help answer different planning questions: the Wildhagerweg is defined by its length, while the Theaterweg is defined by its destination. If you like choosing a route based on a specific distance, the Wildhagerweg’s stated length is useful; the Theaterweg offers a connection to its destination.

Plan your journey and stay

Meggenhofen is centrally located and well connected by transport. For your specific journey, it is worth checking current connections for your planned travel dates, as traffic conditions can change. Take travel arrangements into account alongside your interests in the park, architectural history, routes or rally, so you can plan a stay that suits your priorities.
