July 28, 2023,Krummbachstein 1.602m - der stille Bruder des Schneebergs

The Krummbachstein is a 1,602 m high mountain in Lower Austria and is only separated from the Schneeberg by the Krummbachsattel. A beautiful view opens up from the Krummbachstein: Hochwechsel and Semmering in the south, Raxalpe in the west, Großer Sonnleitstein and Hochschneeberg in the north. In the distance you can even see the cog railway on the Schneeberg.
