The "Weinradroute Veltliner", starting in Laa an der Thaya, leads through the northern Weinviertel. The challenging day tour offers numerous views of the cultural and natural landscape - from views of the nearby Czech Republic from the Galgenberg near Wildendürnbach to the castle ruins near Staatz, which can be seen from afar. Numerous rest stops along the way and the "Spa of the Senses" invite you to linger.
