On the traces of the Seven Sorrows of Mary to the pilgrimage church in Riffian
From the parking area on Hochüblweg in Kuens, you first follow the Riffianer Waalweg (irrigation channel). After about 30 minutes, you turn onto trail no. 5B and then onto no. 3A, which leads you directly to the pilgrimage church “Zu den Sieben Schmerzen Mariens”.
For the return, you have three options:
Tip: The information booklet “Meditation Trail of the Seven Sorrows of Mary” is available at the Riffian Tourist Office.
The trail is not suitable for strollers and wheelchairs.
War sturdy hiking boots, appropriate clothing for the weather and bring sufficient water and provisions.
Walking a pilgrimage route in Riffian has a long tradition: for more than 700 years, people have been coming here on pilgrimage. The seven stations trace the path Mary walked – the Way of the Seven Sorrows, as depicted on the panels surrounding the miraculous image on the high altar of the parish and pilgrimage church.
Always stay on marked trails, check the weather conditions before you hike and pay particular attention to snow, wet ground, or slippery sections.
