Schiederweiher
The Schiederweiher, voted the most beautiful place in Austria in 2018, is also known as the pearl of the Stodertal valley, and rightly so: its idyllic location and breathtaking views of the Spitzmauer and the Großer Priel make it one of Hinterstoder’s most popular excursion destinations. The area around the lake can be explored on easy hiking trails.

Kaltenbrunner Museum
How do extreme mountaineers think and feel and what does it take to reach the highest peaks? In the Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner Museum “Between Heaven and Earth”, you can find out everything about mountains and extreme mountaineering. The exhibition also includes a simulation of the weather conditions at extreme heights, where visitors can experience the tough demands placed on mountaineers at first hand.
Lindermayr forge
For over 500 years, the blacksmith’s shop at Spital Abbey was important as a tool forge for carters, lumberjacks and farmers. In the blacksmith’s shop, you can immerse yourself in the history of the blacksmith’s trade, which was in constant use in Spital thanks to its location on the Pyhrn Pass and the many travellers passing through.
