Take a classic car on a long journey to the Paradise of Scenic Views and discover a variety worth seeing.
Hardly any other landscape in Austria boasts as many beautiful vantage points as the Vienna Alps region. What makes these views even more special is when you look at them from a different angle - from the driver's seat of a vintage car, for example! The thermal spa communities in Lower Austria can offer plenty of inspiration in this area for those interested, making a trip into nature a very special experience.
- Route description From Pitten with its unique rose garden and mountain church, the route goes via Schiltern on L 144 to Weingart and Thernberg. Steeply uphill, past the pilgrimage church Maria Schnee - a destination for both pilgrims and excursionists alike - is the "Cathedral of the Bucklige Welt", the widely visible church of Kaltenberg - on L 145 to Lichtenegg. From there, you take L 176 towards Krumbach, and on L 137 you reach Zöbern.
