Tips

🇦🇹 "AUT-Door" - Daniel 🇦🇹

June 19, 2025

The Voralpenblick observation tower has been enthroned on Buchenberg since 1977 – a slender tower standing 730 meters above the Mostviertel region. On a clear day, the spiral-shaped platform offers breathtaking panoramic views – from the forest and Mühlviertel region, across the Alpine foothills, and into the Ennstal Alps. A rotating arrow on the railing explains the peaks. Whether you're hiking, biking, or driving, it's worth stopping here to enjoy the view.

Erected in 1977 by the Ertl Tourist Association under chairman Karl Schlögelhofer – on Buchenberg at an altitude of around 730 meters. The name "Voralpenblick" says it all: On a clear day, the panoramic view extends from the forest and Mühlviertel region in the north to the Ennstal Alps and foothills in the south. The spiral-shaped platform on a slender pillar is not only architecturally attractive, but also barrier-free – just a few steps lead to the 360° viewing platform.

Recommended hike through the gentle hilly landscape of the Mostviertel.

Particularly attractive when the pear and apple trees are in blossom.
