Lichtenau im Waldviertel

Nature and culture - harmoniously united

In the southern Waldviertel, between the towns of Zwettl and Krems, lies the market town of Lichtenau, consisting of 18 villages, surrounded by a varied cultural landscape. The charming, "wanderable" nature with its river and stream incisions invites you to go hiking and cycling. Many sights as Excursion destinations, numerous leisure facilities and events offer you a wide choice for your vacation or for day trips.
