Its core area, the region around Pretrobruck, contains real gems of scenic beauty. This circular trail to Höllfall and Lohnbachfall is particularly worth recommending. And children will also be delighted, as mighty granite rocks, playgrounds, bubbling streams, cataracts, waterfalls and even a miniature climbing route provide variety and excitement along the entire route.

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.
