Description
Fels am Wagram is the third largest wine-growing community in Austria with around 800 hectares of vineyards. This is also impressively reflected on a hike through the vineyard meadows and wine cellar lanes. The landscape is strongly influenced by viticulture and this is a special feature of the region. The mixture of the large flat areas of the Tullnerfeld with the hilly wine landscape of the striking Wagramkante offers every hiker a suitable challenge profile. In between, you can get closer to the topic of wine on the educational wine trail, on a walk with our cellar lane guides or in a local wine tavern. At the highest points of the hiking trails, you are rewarded with a wonderful view over the Tullnerfeld. The Fels lookout point, at the northern end of the Hammergraben, is easy to reach and freely accessible at all times. The view is magnificent far into the Tullnerfeld and to Traismauer.
