Hiking is the miller’s delight … The Upper Kamptal is perfect for a leisurely outing. There are easy trails right next to the cheerfully babbling stream, swimming spots on sandbars among smooth, rounded boulders, mysterious water mills, a challenging summit hike—and all of this in a landscape still largely untouched by the mass of tourists! Artists such as the painter Friedensreich Hundertwasser found on the banks of the Kamp—the “lifeblood of the Waldviertel”—the creative tranquility they needed to fuel their creativity.

Rewarding excursion destination south of Zwettl The huge wooden structure, a three-legged tower with an enclosing flight of steps, crowns the 811-metre-high Auberg south of Zwettl. Those in a hurry can reach the 27-metre-high viewing platform from the parking lot on the Großgöttfritz - Engelbrechts road in just under half an hour on a good footpath. However, it is much more rewarding to visit from the village of Sprögnitz further to the east, from where there is a herb-themed trail ("Wildkräuterweg") across extensive meadows and through beautiful high forests.
