Groß-Siegharts, a typical Lower Austrian town, lies at an altitude of 534 meters. Nestled in the gently rolling hills of the Waldviertel region, the town has its own unique history. It was first documented around 1150. A market town since 1727, Groß-Siegharts has held city rights since 1928 and has a population of nearly 3,000.

The Kiama Coast Walk follows the officially signposted coastal walking track from Minnamurra train station to Werri Beach lagoon along the coastline, remaining on the marked trail wherever possible.

The name of this walk comes from its Indigenous name, Kiarama, meaning 'place where the sea makes a noise'. This is a beautiful coastal walk with undulating greenery, where farmland meets the Tasman Sea.
