Location & How to get to Pichlschloss

A quiet location in Styria, easily accessible

Pichlschloss is situated in a place where simply arriving is already part of the relaxation: in a secluded spot on a sunny hill near Neumarkt in Styria, right in the heart of the Zirbitzkogel-Grebenzen Nature Park. The hotel is situated in a quiet, green and intimate setting – yet remains easily accessible. The town of Neumarkt is just a few minutes away, the railway station is nearby, and Murau and Carinthia are also well connected. Anyone looking for a hotel in the Murau region with a peaceful setting will find no noisy hotel hustle and bustle here, but rather a perfect place to take a deep breath. Meadows, forests, hiking trails and the unspoilt landscape of the nature park begin practically on the doorstep. The Pichlschloss describes its location as sunny and idyllic within the Zirbitzkogel-Grebenzen Nature Park.

A secluded spot in the countryside near Neumarkt in Styria

There you will find everything you need for daily life, including the railway station, shopping facilities and routes into the surrounding area. At the same time, the castle remains a retreat.
