オーバーヴァングの天然記念物・トップ20

Nice place

The limestone boulder is heavily eroded, especially at its base, so that it protrudes approximately 1.9 m from the water rather than vertically. It has a diameter of 2.1 m at the top, but only 1.3 m at the base. The boulder bears a vertical, approximately 1.8 m high Christian stone cross, which likely gave it its name. A geocache is also located on the boulder.

The Oberburgau is located 30 kilometers east of the city of Salzburg. It is around 8 kilometers south-east of the town center of the Mondsee market on the southern shore of the Mondsee (481 m above sea level) on the narrow strip of shore at the northern foot of the Schafberg in the Salzkammergut mountains. A few meters from the Mondsee shoreline is the Kreuzstein (Mondsee), which no longer belongs to Oberburgau, but like the entire Mondsee to the market town of the same name and thus to the state of Upper Austria. Opposite rise the Mondsee Flyschberge with the Hochplett.

Since the ascent doesn't take too long, you can do it after work and you'll always be rewarded with a great view!

Great first summit with a view over the Attersee and the Mondsee. The ascent is a bit tedious and takes longer than the 2km would suggest. The ascent also includes a short via ferrata unit, which is rewarded with an incredible panorama over the Attersee region. You should also bring sure-footedness with you, as it includes some rock and root sections.

A round Mondsee is about 25km and only a few Hm.

A great mountain hike with a great view of the surrounding lakes but unfortunately also very crowded. You can't really enjoy the view from the summit with about 80 other people on this relatively small summit cross plateau.

In the summer there is a lot of traffic, easy to drive.
