# Celtic Tree Trail in St. Georgen im Attergau in Salzkammergut

The Celtic.tree.path
====================

### Long rows of mighty trees strung like pearls

Based on the burial mound finds from the 1970s, a theme and adventure trail was created in 2006 on the Koglberg in St. Georgen im Attergau: This trail is dedicated to the people of the Iron Age Latenè culture, which flourished in our Attersee-Attergau region around 450 BC.

At nine adventure stations, you will learn stories of salt and iron, of farmers and craftsmen, of the work and celebrations of our ancestors. An "original" **Celtic house** and the large**"Celtic playground**" are the highlights of the Celtic Tree Trail.

The easy themed hiking trail is ideal for families with children. The Celtic Tree Trail was honoured with 2nd place in the Upper Austrian Land's Learning Trail Competition.

#### Every Thursday during the summer holidays, the Celtic train departs from Attersee railway station at 13:30

It starts at 1.30 pm at the railway station in Attersee, where a mysterious magic potion is already waiting for the children. The Attersee railway then takes the little explorers directly to the "Celtic Tree Trail". This programme offers an experience of nature, adventure and historical insights into the Iron Age. The programme includes dressing up, an encounter in the forest of the senses, baking stick bread, a Celtic tattoo and a break at the Celtic house. A programme for the whole family that should not be missing from any holiday plans. Please bring rainwear in case of bad weather.
