Way of happiness (Glücksweg) Hatzendorf

The "Glücksweg" (the trail of happiness) in the "Glücksdorf" (happy village) Hatzendorf - circular trail in search of happiness. Follow the traces of happiness and find out what famous personalities have to say about happiness.
Starting at the Malerwinkl, you will find several sculptures, along the way there are 26 happiness boards with sayings that are meant to inspire reflection, and resting places that invite you to linger. Right in the village there is a lucky donkey that you can stroke, and next to it a fountain where you can make a wish. Walk through the village, along meadows and forest edges, cross the lucky bridge with the dove of peace. You will also find the patron saint of water, John Nepomuk, here.Let's go in search of happiness together, happiness can be very simple... A "happy trail" has some happy stories: naturalness, sustainability, regional products, manageability and art.
