Eleven experience stations have been established between Ansfelden and St. Florian, offering tactile-sensory access to Bruckner's works. Interactive games and sound objects let hikers experience his symphonies auditorily and encourage a deeper engagement with Bruckner's life. The hublz app provides further information, accompanied by two avatars. The hiking trail extends from the Anton Bruckner Center in Ansfelden to the interior of St. Florian Abbey and can be walked in both directions. Start and end stations offer information and a hiking map; a brochure contains English translations of the texts. There are two short destinations for shorter walks near Ansfelden and St. Florian. These stations offer interactions and knowledge so hikers receive a thematic overview. Station 1a in Ansfelden offers a viewpoint over the Linz central area, and there is a resting station with snack benches in the middle of the route. **Equipment:** good footwear is recommended [ Tour and route information ](#ttgCollapseTourdetails) --------------------------------------------------------- **Starting place:** 4490 St. Florian **Destination:** 4052 Ansfelden **duration:** 2h 19m **length:** 8,5 km **Altitude difference (uphill):** 182m **Altitude difference (downhill):** 194m **Lowest point:** 281m **Highest point:** 369m **difficulty:** difficult **condition:** very difficult **panoramic view:** Dreamtour **Paths covering:** Asphalt, Path / trail, Street **Starting point:** Abbey/weather house/literature garden – Ansfelden **Destination:** Abbey/weather house/literature garden – Ansfelden **further information:** [ ![Altitude profile Anton Bruckner Symphony Trail - No. 8](//static.et4.de/ElevationProfileChart/Go.ashx?Experience=hoehenprofil-meta&Server=meta.tourdata.at&AddElevations=true&AddOfftrackWaypoints=false&AddSurfaces=true&AddWaypoints=false&globalid=tourdata_tour_430008167&width=355&height=250&FontSize=12&mkt=en) ![Altitude profile Anton Bruckner Symphony Trail - No. 8](//static.et4.de/ElevationProfileChart/Go.ashx?Experience=hoehenprofil-meta&Server=meta.tourdata.at&AddElevations=true&AddOfftrackWaypoints=false&AddSurfaces=true&AddWaypoints=false&globalid=tourdata_tour_430008167&width=450&height=350&mkt=en) ](#ttgHoehenprofilModal "Anton Bruckner Symphony Trail - No. 8") [ Along the trail ](#ttgCollapseAnDerStrecke) ----------------------------------------------- Ansfelden Auge Gottes [ © Open copyright © Urheber: Werner Kerschbaummayr Copyright: Werner Kerschbaummayr Close copyright ![](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/127906/E39E120F66C62BE9F92A0C893DB9436B37AF1C1D5902A75591711C1D8CF04364/stift-st-florian.jpg "Stift St. Florian (© Urheber: Werner Kerschbaummayr Copyright: Werner Kerschbaummayr)") St Florian Monastery ](https://www.donauregion.at/en/oesterreich-unterkunft/detail/430001409/st-florian-monastery.html) [ ![](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/156279/C4DFC9B4E4089F82E56C9B5E7C41B066E4A7210A483A04225B4685EA8D98CD5A/einkehren.jpg "Einkehren") Gasthof Erzherzog Franz Ferdinand ](https://www.donauregion.at/en/oesterreich-unterkunft/detail/430022237/gasthof-erzherzog-franz-ferdinand.html) ![Gasthof Zum goldenen Löwen](https://assets.tourdata.at/660x495/396853/A7471FCEFE45AFB8408D42ADA3B447735FF6D7292BB8A0C942D05C37A5AB9E5A/gasthof-zum-goldenen-loewen.jpg "Gasthof Zum goldenen Löwen") Goldener Löwe Beautiful guest garden, central location, regional cuisine, homemade pastries.
