If you’re looking for accommodation in Weiding, you can start by choosing based on the experiences you have planned: local highlights include hiking trails with different routes, cycling routes, culture and a traditional festival. The right choice depends on whether you want to explore on foot, cycle or focus on culture.

Hiking: We01 and the Moos Circular Hiking Trail

The We01 hiking trail, also known as the Haidstein Trail, starts at Weiding Town Hall and is 7.8 km long. It passes through Neumühlen, Walting and Haid, through Haidholz, and via Nickelhöhe, Kohlstatt and Waltinger Weg to Haidstein at 743 m. The Moos Circular Hiking Trail We02 runs from Dalking Parish Church via Reisach and Döbersing and back to the parish church. The difference is clear when choosing a route: We01 leads to Haidstein, while We02 returns to the parish church.

Cycling routes and activities on the Chamb

The Weiding-Gleißenberg cycling route connects Weiding to Gleißenberg via Dalking, Döbersing and Rußmühle. You can start in the centre of Weiding or at the town hall. In Weiding, the Chambtal Cycle Route runs directly alongside the railway line; cycling and inline skating are possible there for the whole family. The Chamb also offers opportunities for fishing in the Weiding area.

Another cycling route is Tour 5, which starts and ends in Weiding and offers a worthwhile detour to the “Mensch und Natur” LBV Centre in Nößwartling. Check the centre’s current visitor information before your visit.

Church, Europa-Allee and Potato Festival

St Mary’s Church in Weiding was consecrated on 11 October 1959. At Weiding Europa-Allee Primary School, the Europa-Allee features characteristic trees from the 28 EU member states. The two destinations offer different points of interest: the church provides a historical reference with a specific date, while the avenue focuses on Europe’s member states.

Weiding’s traditional Potato Festival is organised by the municipality’s Fruit and Horticulture Association. At the 2022 festival, dishes on offer included Zwirl with cabbage and stick-cooked fish. These dishes should therefore be understood as part of that year’s festival menu.

In the wider destination of Cham

The wider destination of Cham also offers further cultural attractions. In Furth im Wald, a town in the district of Cham, a tour of the Dragon’s Cave includes information on the town’s dragon history, the festival and the technology behind the dragon robot. Check the operator’s current visitor information before your visit. The summer festival performances in Furth im Wald are part of the Drachenstich tradition.

In Neukirchen beim Heiligen Blut, a municipality in the district of Cham, the Pilgrimage Museum is housed in the former Pflegschloss. It contains treasures from the pilgrimage church’s archives. When planning, you can therefore decide whether to focus on the hiking and cycling routes in Weiding or on other cultural attractions in the wider destination of Cham.
