Itinerary

Hi, I'm Karin, founder of daslebenspueren.at. I organise and accompany guided hikes in the vicinity of Vienna. With a maximum of 4 people, the groups are small and private. It allows me to respond individually to the wishes and needs of the participants.
We hike the World Heritage Trails around the charming medieval village of Spitz. It is a pleasant 3-hour hike (depending on individual speed), up and down through vineyards, forests with stone oaks and pine trees, passing by beautiful rock formations and enjoying amazing views on the river Danube. In the end, we visit a traditional wine tavern or inn and try local food and wine of the region, (optional). Please bring along some money in cash (CC not accepted). This tour was created for people who want to be close to nature, slow down and discover the landscape by walking. We will be far away from the crowds, exploring the hidden paths and silent forest trails. Let me guide you to the magic and hidden beauties of this natural treasure! After a short public bus ride back to our starting point, we continue our journey back to Vienna. Total travelling time from/to Vienna is approx. 2,5 hours.

Price includes 23% commission for Viator.
