Im Herzen von Grünburg hat Ute Grau mit viel Liebe zum Detail das ehemalige Kaffeehaus Bauchinger aus dem Dornröschenschlaf geweckt.
Der gesamte Innenraum wurde völlig neu und besonders romantisch und liebevoll gestaltet.
Genuss mit allen Sinnen - so das Motto. Herrlich duftender Kaffee, verführerische Mehlspeisen und leckere Eiskreationen bringen die Gäste zum Schmelzen. Ob ein ausgedehntes Frühstück, ein Mittagssnack, der traditionelle Nachmittagskaffee, oder der leckere Eisbecher, alles wird immer frisch und liebevoll zubereitet.
Die Fahrt durch das Ortszentrum von Grünburg, und die Rast in Ute`s Kaffeehaus lohnt zu jeder Jahreszeit.
Seit 2001 findet die anfangs private kleine Sammlung im eigenen Krippenhaus am Ortsplatz ihre Herberge. Sie ist deshalb so außergewöhnlich, weil sie sich deutlich von den herkömmlichen Krippenausstellungen, bei denen es meist um die kunstvoll gestalteten Häuser, Paläste, Städte, Höhlen usw. geht, unterscheidet. Hier im Krippenhaus in Steinbach sind aber die Figuren, die Materialien und die kuriosen Handwerkstechniken aus den verschiedensten Ländern im Vordergrund. Raritäten, wie die einzige japanische Großkrippe oder ein handgeknüpfter iranischer Teppich mit 700.000 Knoten, Arbeiten von Indianern, Aborigines, Papuas und Inuit sind zu bestaunen. Am spannendsten ist aber eine Führung im Krippenhaus, denn da wird „hinter die Kulissen“ geblickt und verraten, auf welche unglaubliche Weise so manche Krippe ihren Weg ins Krippenhaus nach Steinbach gefunden hat. Krippe des Jahres ist heuer eine mundgeblasene, bemalte Glaskugel Krippe aus der Zeit kurz nach dem ersten Weltkrieg.
Christbaumschmuck anno dazumal
Wer erinnert sich an den schönen alten Christbaumschmuck aus der Kindheit? Bunt und aus Glas hingen sie einst als Glocke, Schneemann, Tannenzapfen, Vögel uvm. auf unseren Christbäumen. Heute wieder neu entdeckt, bietet das Krippenhaus echten nostalgischen Christbaumschmuck aus Gablonz und Thüringen an. Auch Krippenzubehör ist in großer Auswahl vorhanden.
Holzknechtweihnacht
Das Feuer knistert in der Lanfthütte neben dem Krippenhaus, die Holzknechtsuppe hängt im Kessel über der Feuerstelle und Punsch und Schneebälle warten darauf, verkostet zu werden. Die Holzknechte lüften die Geheimnisse alter Handwerkskunst und verraten, woher so manche Redensart wie „Aufreißer und Obizahrer“ eigentlich kommt. Eine heimelige Stimmung tut sich auf, wenn die Dunkelheit einbricht und man in der alten Holzknechthütte über offenem Feuer herzerwärmendes für Leib und Seele genießt.
Öffentliche Verkehrsmittel:

The handicraft museum of the bladesmiths, grinders and knifemakers is located directly on the Steyr River in the former workshops of the knifemakers' guild.
The craft museum tells of the times when the knifemakers' guild in Steinbach an der Steyr flourished. Until 1967, the Steinbach knifemakers created true works of art here in the Fanz Pils & Söhne knife factory under the toughest working conditions. Now, the "Knifemuseum" presents the craft of the knifemakers and bladesmiths, their importance for the people and their settlement development on more than 200 m2 of exhibition space.
Das Handwerksmuseum der Klingenschmiede, Schleiferer und Messerer befindet sich direkt am Steyrfluß in den ehemaligen Werkstätten der Messererinnung.
Das Handwerksmuseum erzählt von den Zeiten, als die Messererzunft in Steinbach an der Steyr florierte. Bis 1967 schufen hier die Steinbacher Messerer in der Messerfabrik Fanz Pils & Söhne unter härtesten Arbeitsbedingungen wahre Kunstwerke. Nun wird im „Messerermuseum“ auf über 200 m2 Ausstellungsfläche das Handwerk der Messerer und Klingenschmiede, deren Bedeutung für die Menschen und deren Siedlungsentwicklung dargestellt.

1. The tours presented for hiking, walking, biking and road biking, mountain biking, motorbiking, horseback riding, climbing, cross-country skiing, and going on skiing and snowshoe tours etc. are to be considered non-paid tour recommendations and only serve as non-binding information. We have no intention of concluding a contract with the users of this website. The utilisation of the data does not lead to the establishment of a contract with us.
The data may only be used for private use; any commercial use is prohibited. In particular, it is not permissible to offer the data on commercially run websites, file-sharing platforms etc. or to use it to develop commercial products. Downloading data does not imply that users are granted rights to the data concerned.
The tour recommendations posted were created with utmost care; nevertheless, we assume no liability for the correctness and completeness of the information.
We point out that neither the tour recommendations included on this website nor the associated data and information were posted by us, but rather by third parties (Art. 16 Austrian E-Commerce Act). We have no influence on whether the details provided (e.g. distance, level of difficulty, change in altitude, description etc.) are authentic, correct and complete. We do not review these third-party contents. For this reason, we assume no liability for the authenticity, correctness and completeness of the information.
Construction-related measures or other influences (e.g. landslides and similar occurrences) can lead to temporary or permanent changes in a route (e.g. loss of a bridge and similar occurrences). Such occurrences can lead to part of the route or the entire route becoming impassable.
The use of the data as well as undertaking (riding, walking, taking etc.) the recommended tours or using the network of paths occurs at users’ own risk and on their authority. In particular, users themselves are responsible for the choice of route, outdoor orientation, adherence to traffic rules, supplies and equipment for tours listed in Point 1 (e.g. bicycle etc.), wearing a helmet, estimating their own fitness, recognising dangers and maintaining an appropriate velocity. We exclude ourselves from any liability whatsoever for damages, in particular accidents, that occur whilst taking part in the recommended tours.
2.Some of the tours lead over roads with normal traffic conditions. Please observe that there is an increased risk which can be avoided by means of appropriate attention and proper estimation and implementation of one’s own abilities. For this reason, please travel a route that is unfamiliar to you slowly and with special care. Pay constant attention to potential dangers and always observe traffic. Do not leave the routes featured in descriptions.
The potential use of private roads, in particular forestry roads and agricultural transport roads, can be subject to legal restrictions, which must be observed and adhered to.
The normal traffic rules apply. Each user (e.g. biker, motorbiker) is responsible for adhering to these rules and maintaining his/her bike/vehicle and its equipment (lights, brakes etc.) in good working order. Each user is also responsible for ensuring that he/she rides at a velocity that is appropriate for the conditions and his/her skill level and for maintaining sufficient distance to the rider in front. We explicitly recommend adjusting velocity to correspond to the respective field of vision, wearing a helmet, using reflective clothing (or similar) and employing bicycle lights in line with regulations.
3.Each tour requires good physical fitness as well as detailed planning. We explicitly recommend only taking the tours in the case of optimal healthiness.
We recommend that you conclude an accident and liability insurance policy. Use an onboard computer that displays the respective kilometres travelled per day and is calibrated for the front wheel.
4.Special for mountain bikers – Fair-play rules:
Mountain biking is one of the most wonderful outdoor leisure-time activities. Whilst biking or on a mountain biking tour, mountains and lakes, meadows and cabins are re-discovered in new ways. A couple of rules for fair play in the forest help to avoid conflicts whilst mountain biking.
a.Pedestrians have the right of way: We are accommodating and friendly to pedestrians and hikers. Upon encountering these fellow travellers, we alert them by using the bicycle bell and slowly overtake them. We avoid paths with heavy pedestrian traffic altogether. Take nature into account: We do not leave refuse behind.
b.The braking distance should be half of the total distance visible: We ride at a controlled pace, are ready to brake and maintain a braking distance half as long as the total distance visible, especially in curves, because we always have to count on obstacles on the path. Damage to the path, stones, branches, wood piles, grazing livestock, cattle grids, barriers, tractor-type forestry machines and authorised vehicles pose dangers that we need to be ready for.
c.Don’t drink and drive!: Do not drink alcohol when mountain biking. Take care at stop-off points (dealing with bike racks, dirty shoes or clothing).
It is obligatory to provide first aid!
d.Marked routes, closed paths and blockades: Keep to the marked routes, observe the blockades and accept that these roads are primarily for agricultural and forestry use!
Blockades can often not be avoided and are in your own interest. Biking beyond the intended path and outside of opening times is punishable and turns us into illegal bikers.
e.We are guests in the forest and behave accordingly, including vis-à-vis forestry and hunting staff. Whilst mountain biking, mobile telephones and music players are forbidden! Biking requires your full attention.
f.Avoid unnecessary noise. Out of consideration to the animals living in the wild, we only bike during full daylight. As a principle, we always wear our helmet (even when riding uphill)! Don’t forget emergency supplies: We always have a repair set and bandages along.
g.Don’t overestimate your skills: We should not overdo it when it comes to biking technique and physical fitness. Take the level of difficulty posed by the route into consideration and make a precise estimate of your experience and skills as a biker (braking, bell, lights)!
h.Close gates: We approach grazing livestock at a walking pace and close every gate behind us. We should avoid causing escape and panic reactions in the animals. Nothing stands in the way of the fun and athletic challenge in the mountains and forests!
i.Traffic rules: The general traffic rules (StVO) apply for all the mountain biking routes and we adhere to them. Our bike therefore needs to be in perfect technical condition and equipped in line with the traffic rules, including brakes, a bell and lights. We inspect and service our mountain bikes regularly anyway.
