Schrambach train station

The Schrambach railway station is located in the Lower Austrian Alpine foothills and is the terminus of the Traisentalbahn for passenger traffic. The elaborately designed station building with natural stone facade and gable roof was built in 1877 at the railway kilometre 8.6 along the branch line of the Leobersdorfer Bahn. Connections to regional trains in the direction of Traisen and St. Pölten main station are available every hour.

Traisentaler circular hiking trail

Schrambach offers an excellent starting point to climb many a tour along the Traisentaler Rundwanderweg along the foothills of the Alps. The hike is all the easier if you have a goal in mind and the region is well known for its rest huts and refreshment stops. For example, you can reach the Lilienfelder Hütte in about an hour's walk and, via a longer hike, the Otto Kandler Haus, which is also open at weekends and on public holidays.

History of the route

In 1874 the basis for the construction of the Leobersdorf railway line was laid by law for the route
St. Pölten - Leobersdorf was presented. This was also done for the planned branch line to Schrambach and subsequently to Freiland. Today the passenger traffic ends at the station Schrambach. After the abandoned Tavern station, the line section from Innerfahrafeld continues to St. Aegyd am Neuwald, on which mainly freight traffic is handled. Since 2012, special trips have also been offered again for passenger traffic.
