Gravel, rock and lime were mined in the Gumpoldskirchen quarry until 1990. Below the quarry towards Gumpoldskirchen there are still a few abandoned industrial buildings. Today, private events are still held in the quarry, with special permission, as entering the area is prohibited due to the risk of falling rocks.

Hiking

The quarry near Gumpoldskirchen impresses with its striking rock faces and offers fascinating insights into the geological history of the thermal region. A unique, almost rugged atmosphere is created amidst the light forests and stony paths. A varied section of the hiking trails around the vineyards.
