Forest Ridge Trail

Highlight • Trail

Single trail through the cool forest, worn-out areas are secured with ropes. The more or less straight climb is a small challenge.

The church with its defensive walls is worth seeing on its own. The way up to the church is also a highlight in itself. Here you can also learn a lot about grape varieties.

Old Town of Weißenkirchen in the Wachau

Highlight • Historical Site

A wonderful city with historic charm. The best way to experience it is to stroll through the narrow streets and soak it all in. We also really enjoyed the selection at the Hick nursery!
