둔켈슈타이너발트‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산 정상

Of course, the observation deck next to the transmitter is more interesting.

A stunning viewpoint with an ascent and descent for experienced hikers! Fantastic views over the Wachau Valley from a height of 712 meters.

The Starhembergwarte at 564 m is a small observation tower high above Dürnstein.

The new lookout is a great vantage point over the Wachau! Numerous hiking trails pass by here, such as the World Heritage Trail and the Dunkelsteinerwald circular hiking trail.

Beautiful and modern watchtower with a great view!

Further information about the observation tower is available at https://aussichtswarte-jauerling.jimdoweb.com/ (as of November 2, 2024). Of course, you should know that the subdomain *.jimdoweb.com indicates that the website was created by "complete" amateurs and is therefore usually poorly maintained. It is to be hoped that an exception proves the rule.

Ascent only for experienced climbers! Or rather, the descent. Getting up the via ferrata, secured with ladders and ropes, is manageable, but going down can be a bit tricky if you're not very experienced with climbing. The view, however, is breathtaking!

The Jauerling is of course a must for every ambitious cyclist! The climb from the south via the L7145 is not necessarily recommended in summer because there is little shade. It is better to approach from Gut am Steg or from Aggsbach Markt.
