Top Spot hubertus chapel
Panoramic view of the Loferer Steinberge
After a snowshoe tour via Au and the Auer Wiesen along a romantic forest trail, you reach the height of the old Knappenstadl. The view over the village and the Loferer Steinberge stretches out here like a grandiose panoramic window. In the distance you can make out the Schmidt-Zabierow Hut in the rock massif and a wooden bank invites you to settle down for a while and let this unbelievable view wash over you. The “Haus der Schokolade“ - the “House of Chocolate“ seminar building of the Loferer master chocolatier Herbert Berger is also situated on this beautiful viewing platform.
If you stroll along a small path through the forest behind the architecturally remarkable building you come to the Hubertus chapel.

It appears as a surprise after a short bend in the path and a spring babbles a warm welcome. The small chapel bears the name of the patron saint of hunters for good reason. Countless tracks around the chapel show that stags and deer meet congregate here in quiet moments. The silence in this small hollow surrounds the walker like an embrace – no noise from the village reaches here and the songbirds in the surrounding trees sing their delicate song.
Those who are in a hurry to relax at this silent top spot can reach the elevation of the former Knappenstadl by car along an asphalt road from Scheffsnoth.
