We walk through the Upper and Lower Market to Schulgasse, where we turn left and walk up to the Senftenberg Parish Church. Once at the top, dont’t be afraid to walk the 10minutes to the Senftenberg ruins, which are well worth seeing, with their magnificent view. The trail then descends again, above the well-known Ehrenfels vineyard, past the Nigl winery. We cross the main road and the Krems over the footbridge and hike through the district of Hofstatt to Imbach. The parish church is worth seeing, only 5 minutes off the trail. We continue along a quiet footpath on the right bank of the river, which takes us to Krems-Rehberg. Turn right under the Rehberg ruins and past the church via the Partschen vineyard to the Alauner Landesstraße. This leads us in a south-easterly direction through the Kühberg and Spiegel vineyards. Past the Schwarzalm Inn with its magnificent view of the Danube, through the Armesündergraben, and down through the Ried Wachtberg, we reach the stage destination of Hoher Markt in Krems.
