ペククシュタルのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

The cannon roundabout of Pöggstall Castle was built around 1530 as an outlying defensive structure and served to defend the castle. The round fortress tower, with its mighty walls and loopholes, was part of the former moated castle complex. Today, the roundabout is considered one of the most impressive late medieval defensive structures in Lower Austria.

Fish ponds around the castle. A walk is worthwhile.

The parish church of St. Anna in Pöggstall is a late Gothic hall church, built around 1480 as a castle and burial church for the Lords of Rogendorf. Its interior features a two-aisled net-ribbed vault, a magnificent winged altarpiece with a Crucifixion group, and Gothic frescoes. The neo-Gothic tower was added in the 19th century; today, the church is one of the most important religious buildings in the southern Waldviertel region.

A fascinating castle with an exhibition included in the Lower Austria Card. Food and drinks are available.

Lonely bench in the forest opposite a wooden cross. Ideal for a rest.

Why would anyone recommend a mountain bike ride when cycling is prohibited throughout the forest is beyond me.

Rest in a pub or visit an exhibition!

The small Peilstein is also a big highlight!
