    Beautiful view overlooking Dürnstein and the Dürnstein ruins.
    Benches also invite you to linger and enjoy!


    The first early bloomers can be found in the Wachau, so I head to Dürnstein and first explore an unmarked ridge. I take the so-called Smiley Trail, which invites you to climb a bit, which I particularly like. On the way down, I admire the rocks, including the famous Edelweiss Tower, and also look at the castle ruins with a wonderful view of the Danube Valley. A botanical highlight awaits on the Kuhberg. The cowbells are blooming on the dry grassland, shining from afar - simply a dream. At the beginning of spring, the pink-purple early bloomers can be admired.
