Circular trail 3 Vöcklamarkt – Haushamerfeld – Pfaffing – Kalvarienberg

Beautiful hike from Vöcklamarkt to Kalvarienberg, which takes us to the Haushamerfeld peasant war memorial, which is known far beyond the borders and refers to the peasant wars around 1625. The "Frankenburg Dice Game" is also held every two years to commemorate these tragic clashes between peasants and landlords.



The tour starts in the municipality of Vöcklamarkt. Here, after a few forks in the path, you first cross the Vöckla and then continue over the ditch up to the "Maurachen Allee", a special kind of natural monument, and on to the Haushamerfeld.

Here you will find a monument commemorating the Peasants' Wars around 1600. In memory of this tragic event  the "Frankenburger Würfelspiel" takes place every 2 years, which is performed exclusively by amateur actors. The path then leads us downhill to the Pfaffing village hall, past the tennis court to Pfaffing.

Now we head up to Ziegelhaid to the Ziegelstub'n snack station. Here you have a wide panoramic view of the lake area and the Höllengebirge mountains.
The road continues to Teicht. Here we turn left and then right again at the Vitzal snack station down the road to the Kalvarienberg. Here you have a wonderful view of Vöcklamarkt with the mountains behind it.

There are two options for the way back:
We can either hike from the Kalvarienberg chapel via the Way of the Cross down to Vöcklamarkt or back to the road and down again via Landberg, back to the starting point.
