Today we went on a tour through the Czech Republic and Austria in the direction of Schneeberg. We completed the ascent from Puchberg am Schneeberg with the Schneebergbahn, which manages the 1200 m difference in altitude in 40 minutes.
Starting below at 23 degrees and sunshine, 10 degrees and fog with visibility in the range of 50 m awaited us …

The monastery coat of arms on the Schneberg is the highest peak in Lower Austria. A mountain peak that is easy to climb. From Puchberg take the cog railway to the mountain station. From there it can be reached in an hour.

From the terminus of the salamander train it is at least another 1.5 hours of climbing and clambering over pebbles and boulders.
Bring water and a jacket or sweater for the top of the mountain. Your tough climb will definitely be rewarded with beautiful views.

Once a year we take the salamander up to the Schneeberg. Then the crowds will be enough for us again for a year. 😉😂

Partly really cool cloud mood.

October 22, 2023,Schneeberg- Runde. Salamander mit NÖ-Card genutzt

Almost every year we use the NÖ-Card to conquer the Schneeberg with the Salamander. The other times we do it over some sort of path 😉

Today was public hiking day again or something similar. We've been up there many times before, but today... There's an incredible amount of people out and about.
