Hohe Mandling
Mountain summit
Description
To the north of the Piestingtal valley, the Hohe Mandling rises up to 967 meters. The mountain range belongs to the municipalities of Pernitz and Waldegg as well as the district of Baden. The steep climbs and densely wooded routes continue to attract numerous hikers to the summit - even though it is no longer possible to stop for refreshments: in 2007, the historically significant Berndorfer Hut, which had stood on the beautiful summit clearing since the 1920s, burned down completely.
