The square in front of the chapel offers an excellent view of the northern Attersee and the landscape of the Attergau. Ideal for a rest is the Hollerweger snack station opposite (open daily May to Oct.).

Along the Kelten.Baum.Weg you have the possibility to make a short detour to the ruin Kogl - just follow the signs Ruine Kogl, which will automatically lead you back to the Kelten.Baum.Weg.
Kogl Castle was built in 1264 - there were many changes of ownership and until the beginning of the second half of the 18th century, the castle was not permanently inhabited after that, so decay set in. As a result, the new Kogl Castle was built around 1750 at the foot of the Kogl Mountain. There is also an old stand of larch trees to admire.
Stay along the Keltenbaumweg, after the ruins of Kogl Castle it leads you past the adventure playground as well as the Vogl Anna Platzl lookout point. Now the path goes slightly downhill back to the starting point, the Keltenbaumweg parking lot at the traffic circle.
