Old Zechhaus, Gumpoldskirchen

Highlight • Restaurant

In the center of Gumpoldkirchen is the old Zechhaus, where the wines of the Hauerzech members were stored as early as the 15th century. Later on, the wine was given to people, i.e. it was served.

Gumpoldskirchen was first mentioned in documents in 1140, but it certainly existed some time before this date - but unfortunately the history books don't tell us anything about it. The same applies to the parish of Gumpoldskirchen. Here too we do not know when it was created, whether it was independent from the start or whether it initially belonged to a neighboring parish. The first signs of life from her only appeared in the 13th century. Today the parish of Gumpoldskirchen belongs to the ecclesiastical district "Dekanat Mödling" in the administrative unit "Vikariat unter dem Wienerwald".

View of Gumpoldskirchen from the Kalvarienberg

The Calvary was built by the citizens of Gumpoldskirchen in the 19th century after the town was spared from the cholera epidemic in 1856.

The platform of individual stations offers a beautiful view of the town and the surrounding wine mountains.

Wilhelmswarte on the Hochanninger summit

Highlight • Viewpoint

After a somewhat arduous ascent, you will be rewarded with a wonderful view from the Anninger. Great 360 degree view from the Wilhelmswarte. However, the marking to the waiting room and back is inadequate. Visiting the tower is free!

Anninger Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Like the top dog, the Anninger Schutzhaus is centrally located on the Anninger. The kitchen is good. In the warm season, it's worth taking a break here during a lengthy mountain bike tour, in order to then ski down from the Anninger. There are several options here:
- a downhill to Gaaden via the Jubilee Observatory
- via the forest road to Gaaden
- via the forest road to the Prokschhütte
- via forest paths in the direction of Richardshof / Prisnitztal
- via the forest road back to Mödling
- via the forest road to Hinterbrühl
- via the forest road and the border path to the hussar temple
and so forth.

Relaxed hike. The parking lot at the start and finish is easy to find and drinks are also provided at the wine vending machine 👍😁

In the hope that
- it is cooler in the forest
- it is cooler in the morning
Anninger, down again at 10 a.m. Pretty quiet at that time.

If you're visiting Austria for hiking, it's best to venture beyond Vienna. However, if you're based in the capital, there are still plenty of worthwhile trails nearby.

This particular hike begins in Gumpoldskirchen, easily accessible from Vienna via the S-Bahn. To the west of the town, the hills gradually rise to the 675-metre Anninger peak.
