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!

Parish Church of the Assumption of Mary, Weißenkirchen

Highlight • Religious Site

Fortified churches (as well as in Spitz) served not only for worship, but at the same time offered protection against armed conflicts. From here you have a good view of the Danube.

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.
