Hainfeld train station

Today's terminus Hainfeld connects the probably largest and most important village in the Gölsental with the line of the former Leobersdorfer Bahn. From here, regional trains run hourly to Schrambach and St. Pölten main station. Equally seamlessly integrated is the connection to several bus lines in the direction of Vienna, Ramsau, Lilienfeld and Mariazell.

The directly connected Park & Ride facility provides parking for 20 cars and thus offers a convenient connection to the public railway network. There is space for 19 bicycles in the Bike & Ride station, which is also equipped.

Off to the next hike

Whether you want to hike to the nearest Liasenböndlhütte in about 30 minutes, plan a longer hike to the Hainfelder Hütte, or even hike to the Lindenberg in the course of the 3 Hütenwanderung, you can be sure that you will reach the Lainfelder Hütte in no time.In the midst of charming forests and along the nature-loving landscapes of the Gölsental, it is easy to simply switch off and let the way be the goal.

History

Due to increased road traffic, the railway line in the Gölsental gradually lost its economic importance. Originally, the line was primarily designed to supply freight traffic, but in the course of time more and more necessary maintenance measures were neglected. As a result, it was no longer possible to ensure cost-covering operation of the line, and operation was discontinued for passenger traffic over the Gerichtsberg as early as 2001. Hainfeld station thus became the current end point of a railway line steeped in history.
