Hiking trail and summit cross

Paudorf railroad station is the best starting point for a hike to the summit cross on the Waxenberg. An easy hiking route stretches along rustic forest paths, which rewards you with a magnificent view of the nearby Göttweig Abbey and the natural surroundings.

Sequoia trees in Paudorf

From 1877 to 1886, Adalbert Dungel was appointed forest warden of Göttweig Abbey and planted several seeds of the tree species "Wellingtonia gigantea" in the ground. The resulting stands of giant sequoias are now among the largest in Central Europe and can be seen on the Eichberg plateau south-east of Paudorf.

The history

The Krems railroad line was opened in 1889, opening up the connection from Herzogenburg to Krems an der Donau. In the same year, the first fire station was built in Paudorf.
