Lower Austria
A province with many landscapes. Between the Danube and the Alps, between Ybbs and Enns, Mostviertel enchants with its rural charm and invites families and nature lovers to enjoy adventurous mountain vacations. Local picturesque hiking trails and hiking routes promise magical hiking fun even in the cold season thanks to good trail quality, reliable snow clearing and special route guidance.
If you prefer to walk in the company of animals, you can join the adorable alpacas or donkeys, for example. The friendly animals are infectious with their calm and serenity and are guaranteed to provide unforgettable moments.
The north of Lower Austria is covered by the Waldviertel with its beautiful rivers and ponds. Right on the border with the Czech Republic, the landscape blends Austrian flair with Czech charm. The Weinviertel keeps its promises. Numerous winegrowers cultivate their vines on the beautiful hills. Ideal for wine lovers, cyclists and short breaks. The Vienna Woods in Lower Austria are right on the border with Vienna. However, this is in no way comparable to the large Austrian capital. The Vienna Woods impress with their idyllic landscape and seemingly untouched nature. Visit Austria's largest federal state and be enchanted by the unique landscapes.
