Attractions Near Unterberg
SteinwandklammThe Steinwandklamm is a gorge near Weißenbach an der Triesting in Lower Austria on the municipal boundary between Furth an der Triesting and Muggendorf , which was opened to tourists in 1884. On the south side of the gorge wall there are several smaller passage caves next to each other, the largest of which is called the Wildschützenloch, and to the west of it, a little higher, the so-called "Turk's Hole", a passage cave around 20 meters long.
Myra WaterfallsMyra Waterfalls was a series of cascades and small waterfalls on the Myrabach with a total drop of maybe 70m. The gorge runs from north to south and is protected as a natural monument. The subsoil of the gorge is limestone. The Myrabach falls in several cascades through the gorge. At the upper and lower end the water is impounded into a small pond.
ReisalpeThe Reisalpe is the highest mountain in the Gutenstein Alps and lies between Lilienfeld, Hohenberg and Kleinzell in Lower Austria.It is a popular destination, both for hikers in summer and also for ski mountaineering and snowshoe walks in winter, and is classed as relatively safe from avalanches.
MuckenkogelMuckenkogel is a part of the Gutensteiner Alps in the Austrian province of Lower Austria. Rising 4095 feet above sea level, the mountain is one of several close to the historic city of Lilienfeld. Today it is of historical significance due to the Czech-born ski pioneer Mathias Zdarsky. On March 19, 1905 the first official Alpine Ski Race was held on Muckenkogel. It was won by Zdarsky. Today, the mountain is a spot for hiking, mountain biking, as well as paragliding.
FadensteigFadensteig is a majestic mountain located in the heart of Austria. It is one of the shortest and most popular routes for experienced mountaineers and sure-footed hikers to climb the Schneeberg, and is therefore almost a normal route. The thread is also very popular with ski tourers in winter, but it can quickly become a deadly trap when it is icy.
SchöpflThe Schöpfl in Lower Austria is the highest mountain in the Vienna Woods. It is mostly covered by deciduous forest. On its summit is the Matraswarte , from which, in good weather, you can see the highest mountains in Lower Austria, the Schneeberg and the Rax. Because of the purity of the air and the much lower light pollution compared to Vienna, the University of Vienna 's Leopold Figl Observatory was built in 1969 on the Mitteröpfl, a nearby secondary summit.
