Waldviertel
  • Tip Rating:
  • Waldviertel is that part of Niederösterreich, that is north of the Danube and west of Mannhartsberg.

    The landscape has lots of smaller hills, some great castles and lovely small towns & villages !


    On my pages you may find pages about the Waldviertel-villages :
    Krems - Dürnstein - Grafenegg

    other places of interest :

    Gars am Kamp & Rosenburg
    Gmünd - Weitra - Zwettl
    Langenlois - Waidhofen an der Thaya

    On my pic is ROSENBURG - I made a seperate page about it with plenty of pics and tips !

    Industrieviertel
  • Tip Rating:
  • Industrieviertel ( quarter of industry ) is the eastern part of Niederösterreich, south of the Danube. (roughly south of Vienna )

    The landscape has smooth hills in the west and is partly rather flat in the east, and as it is so close to Vienna, plenty of small factories were built there, that gave the name...

    Most important places in Industrieviertel :

    BADEN - great buildings & home of my brother Leo (Globerover)

    GÖTTLESBRUNN - home of Manfred (MEdelmann) - simply have a look at his pages !

    other places of interest :
    Semmering - great skiing area & famous mountain railway

    Carnuntum / Petronell - Roman remains
    Gumpoldskirchen
    Mödling
    Mayerling

    Mostviertel
  • Tip Rating:
  • Mostviertel is east of Steyr and south of the Danube until about the city of Tulln.
    Mostviertel is a landscape with smooth hills and lots of apple- and pear-trees , that will be used to make a sort of apple- and pear-wine (=Most) or spirits, Schnaps & Obstler

    Places of interest in Mostviertel, to be found on my pages are :

    MELK - baroque monastery
    AGGSTEIN - castle ruin
    Schönbühl - castle & monastery

    more places of interest :

    Seitenstetten with a great monastery
    Stift Göttweig - a great monastery
    Zwentendorf - an atomic power plant of a typical Austrian Style : First it was built , AFTERWARDS the population was asked, wether it should be used as well...

    AUSTRIA SAID NOOOOOOO !!!

    ;-)) 1.000.000.000 €uro invested for nothing ;-((

    Weinviertel
  • Tip Rating:
  • Weinviertel is north of the Danube and east of Mannhartsberg ( it is roughly the area north of Vienna )

    The landscape has plenty of vinyards ( that is where the name came from ) and it is much more flat than Waldviertel.

    Some nice villages, BUT certainly no real sights, except maybe Burg Kreuzenstein (close to Stockerau)
    Laa an der Thaya
    Eggenburg
    Hollabrunn

    and a really beautiful exception :

    RETZ - ( MEdelmann has great pics about this lovely town !! )

    have a look from the great balkony
  • Tip Rating:
  • Part of the tour is also the great balcony on the very end of the monestary - and you will have a great look on the danube normally - but it was heavyly raining - so I did not take a pic - but looking back on the monestary was great as well
