8.2 km Ameisbergwarte (opened in 1903). Norbert Hanrieder was responsible for its construction. A spiral staircase with 135 steps leads to the platform on the tower, which offers an impressive view over the Mühlviertel, the Bohemian Forest, Bavaria, the Innviertel and the Alpine foothills. From a chapel next to the lookout point, the Hanriederweg trail now runs parallel to the Mittellandweg trail no. 150 towards Putzleinsdorf. Continue downhill through the forest until you reach the tarmac road.
