Wine Journey in Wagram

The Eisen.Hut viewing platform sits enthroned on the Eisenhut vineyard, one of the highest points on the Wagram. The Wagram themed trails around Fels am Wagram and the Schlossberg Mitterstockstall viewing platform also offer impressive panoramic views over vineyards as far as Göttweig Abbey.

In addition to the picturesque wine cellar lanes and charming wine-growing villages, the Alchemists' Park Museum is well worth a visit. In Tulln, the Garten Tulln garden attracts visitors, while in Grafenegg, the castle of the same name with its open-air stage and festival flair beckons. And if you drive a little further, you will reach Krems an der Donau – an UNESCO World Hertige site, gateway to the Wachau region and, with the Kunstmeile Krems, a hotspot for contemporary art and culture. If you prefer a quiet and contemplative place, the large Peace Stupa in Grafenwörth, Europe's largest Buddhist structure, is very well suited for this. A detour to the neighbouring Kamp Valley ("Kamptal" in German) is also a must. 

“Wagram DAC” guarantees typical regional quality: Grüne Veltliner and Roter Veltliner, Pinot Blanc and Riesling reflect the limestone and loess soils here. DAC wines stand for clear origin, precise style and an unmistakable Wagram profile.

Yes – Austria's first vegan wine tavern, Veganer Heuriger am Wagram in Großriedenthal, serves purely plant-based specialities. The Himmelreich restaurant also focuses on creative, seasonal cuisine with many vegetarian dishes.

From Vienna, you can easily reach Wagram in about 45 minutes by S-Bahn or regional train towards Krems – for example, to Kirchberg am Wagram station. From there, regional buses run to places such as Fels or Großriedenthal.

When it rains, wineries with tasting rooms invite you to enjoy a few pleasant hours. Culture lovers can visit the town of Krems, Grafenegg Castle or the Alchemists' Park Museum. For relaxation, head to the Laa thermal spa (approx. 40 minutes away) or, closer to Krems, the day spa at the Steigenberger Hotel and Spa.
