    The Prochenberg is a mountain in Eisenwurzen in Lower Austria in the Ybbstal Alps. With its height of 1123 m above sea level. A. it is the local mountain of the market town of Ybbsitz.

    The two-peaked crest of the Prochenberg has the highest point in the eastern summit on which the Prochenberg hut of the OeAV, section Waidhofen / Ybbs, originally built in 1866, is located. Next to the hut, a steel lookout tower rises above the trees and allows deep views of Ybbsitz as well as the view of the nearby Ötscher and Dürrenstein mountains, to the north the view of the Alpine foothills to the Dunkelsteinerwald and the southern Waldviertel.

    The lookout tower was built in 1989 by a traditional company in the local iron processing industry to mark its 325th anniversary. Until a wind break and subsequent clearings in 1980, the summit was forested and the view blocked by trees.

    There is a wooden summit cross on the Kreuzkogel, the only slightly lower west summit. After extensive felling, this survey also offers a free panorama (as of 2011).

      A hut popular with hikers and bikers. In summer it is open on weekends and public holidays. In the off-season only on Sundays. The pastries are always very tasty.
