Uphill South Trail (Burgenland Trails, Naturpark Geschriebenstein)

Highlight • Trail

For once I didn't ride the Uphill Trail because after the long journey we wanted to ride downhill as often as possible, although the departure times of the shuttle absolutely had to be changed!

Margarethenwarte Observation Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Margarethenwarte towers 31 metres high and offers a fantastic view over the Bucklige Welt, Rax, Schneeberg and the Vienna Basin to Lake Neusiedl. The observation tower is made entirely of wood and is a great destination for a hike.
