Wilhering

The foundation of a stone watchtower is preserved on a rock spur in the Kürnberger Wald where the Hirschleitenbach flows into the Danube. The terrain falls steeply northwards to the Danube, where the granite massif of the Böhmische Masse creates a narrowing of the Danube valley. The prominent location provides a far-reaching view of the north to the fluvial plain around Puchenau and all the way to the Ottensheimer Becken in the northwest. The watchtower is sign-posted and can be reached via a small hike path. More Information
