Description

At a good 300km, the long-distance trail leads along the Viennese Alpenbogen, through southern Lower Austria.

Even the first few kilometres along the Rosaliengebirge will give you a preview of the hiking experience which is to come. You will soon see the great Alpine arc fold out in front of you like a panoramic image.

From Bucklige Welt, the route leads into Schwaigenland, a pasture area along the Wechsel, and further east to the enchanting landscape of the "Semmering Railway and surrounding landscape", which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. From here, immerse yourself in the high Alpine surroundings of the Rax and the Schneeberg, the highest mountain in Lower Austria.

The experience of reaching the Hochschneeberg will more than make up for such a difficult ascent. After that, the route continues down gentle paths from the Schneeberg mountain range in the Gutenstein Alps, and through the Piesting Valley, to Bad Fischau-Brunn. equipment Although most of the routes are well-developed hiking trails, you will still walk through hilly and mountainous landscapes.

Suitable equipment is recommended. Some parts of the route lead through high Alpine terrain, where the weather can change at any time.

Care must therefore be taken. Please note that this tour passes through high Alpine terrain.

Bring a suitable map.

Wear suitable, sturdy shoes, and bring sun and rain protection, as well as water and a bite to eat.

Bring your mobile phone, and save the emergency number of the mountain rescue team: 140
