In the fertile Lower Inn Valley, Mayrhof is primarily shaped by agriculture. Wide meadows, fields and forests provide the setting for walks and cycling tours. These activities also offer opportunities to discover distinctive features of the local flora and fauna, as well as small monuments such as chapels and wayside shrines. This gives your trip two specific focal points: time in nature and small cultural discoveries along the way. There are also local offerings with an agricultural connection.
Agriculture and local offerings
By Wolfsberger runs a tiny-house farm shop and a mobile fruit press in Mayrhof. The two offerings have different focuses: the farm shop is based in Mayrhof, while the fruit press is mobile. Together, they show how the area’s agricultural character is also reflected in local offerings.
Mosthof Greiner offers a dumpling experience for groups of 8 to a maximum of 40 people. If you plan to include it as a group activity, check availability directly with the venue. The group size range provides a specific point of reference for planning.
Walks, cycling tours and nature
The wide meadows, fields and forests invite you to enjoy extended walks and cycling tours in a natural setting. Both activities around Mayrhof offer opportunities to discover distinctive features of the local flora and fauna. Exercise and observing nature are therefore part of the same theme for your stay: as you travel, you can pay attention both to the landscape and to its plant and animal life. Chapels and wayside shrines also draw your attention to the area’s small monuments. This brings the focus on the landscape together with discoveries along walks and cycling tours.
Hikes and chapels
A description associated with the ORF Hiking Day on 2 October 2022 mentions a hiking route from Eggerding to the village of Mayrhof, running along a field path and through a forest. The change between these two sections gives the described route a distinctive landscape character.
A 2022 hiking description names Hochschacher, at 498 m, as the tour’s highest point. For those who like to plan hikes with a clear elevation figure in mind, this provides a specific point of reference.
The Bachmayer family chapel is a sight along the way to the village of Mayrhof. This is distinct from the village chapel in Mayrhof, which was redesigned by artist Meinrad Mayrhofer from Pram. For those interested in culture, these offer two different points of connection: a chapel that is a sight along the way, and a village chapel whose redesign is associated with an artist from Pram.
Choosing accommodation in Mayrhof
When looking for a holiday apartment in Mayrhof, it helps to decide in advance what you would like to focus on during your stay: will you spend most of your time on extended walks and cycling tours, or would you especially like to visit chapels, wayside shrines and other small monuments? You can make this choice between a focus on the landscape and one on culture when deciding on your destination. Groups can also check whether the dumpling experience at Mosthof Greiner suits their plans and confirm availability directly with the venue.
