The diameter of the oak tree is impressive; according to local history, I suspect that a watchtower once stood there, and light signals were used to communicate with the ruins of Waasen, Hohenegg and Jauerling, and with the ruins of Aggstein. Luberg or Oawelurga, hence Luberg.

The Mariazell Railway is more than just a means of transport; it's an experience that whisks travelers away to the picturesque landscapes of Lower Austria and Styria. Your journey begins at St. Pölten Central Station, where the modern trains – known as the "Stairway to Heaven" – depart daily. The connection to Mariazell offers not only comfort but also a stress-free way to enjoy the beauty of nature. Over a distance of 85 kilometers, the train winds its way through the idyllic Dirndl Valley to its destination, the famous pilgrimage site of Mariazell. With a travel time of approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, passengers have ample opportunity to admire the breathtaking views. The journey climbs 619 meters in altitude, reaching its highest point in the impressive Gösing Tunnel, which, at 2,369 meters, is the longest tunnel on this route.

The bridge over the Melk River, just before its confluence with the Danube, offers outstanding views of the river, its estuary, and the surrounding landscape. Melk Abbey, a Benedictine monastery of outstanding historical and cultural significance, rises within sight. Founded in the 11th century, it received its present Baroque appearance in the 18th century under the direction of Jakob Prandtauer. The abbey impresses with its magnificent library, ornate state rooms, and the Baroque abbey church with its striking onion domes and magnificent frescoes. As part of the Wachau UNESCO World Heritage Site, the abbey attracts numerous visitors every year and, together with the view from the bridge, forms a particularly impressive panorama of the region.
