호수 주변의 아름다운 풍경

A beautiful place to rest with historical significance.

The bee-eater colony on Ungerberg, a fine vineyard in Weiden am See, is a must-see. It's reminiscent of the sandstone dwellings of the Nabataeans in Petra, Jordan. In summer, you can also enjoy the colorful birds themselves. But please shhh. The fantastic view from Ungerberg of Lake Neusiedl and the vineyards is best enjoyed in peace anyway.

A side note: I happened to find a very nice children's book (Chiara and the Bee-Eaters) with a lovely story. You can find out more at www.chiarasabenteuer.at.

Bee-eater colony in Weiden am Neusiedler See

North of Jois is the Ochsenbrunnen. A small pond in the middle of a natural landscape that makes every romantic heart beat faster. It's worth a visit, especially on hot days: Located at the edge of the forest, old trees provide enough shade, fresh spring water gushes out of the fountain and offers refreshment, and benches with tables invite you to rest. Water lilies adorn the pond and colorful dragonflies regularly pay a visit. And the view of Jois and Lake Neusiedl is tremendous.

The bee-eaters on the slopes of the Ungerberg, on the border between Weiden and Gols, are a popular target for ornithologists. A sizeable colony establishes their nesting sites here from April to the end of July.
