The "Walk of Fame" in Neusiedl am See is part of the "Square of Champions" near the lake, a kind of athletes' promenade where handprints of successful athletes from the region are immortalized, such as water sports athletes Valentin Bontus, Calvin Claus, and Angelika Kohlendorfer. It is a popular starting point for hikes and walks around Lake Neusiedl, which are also listed as a "Walk of Fame" on hiking apps like Komoot.

A charming exhibition of drawings by children's book author Erwin Moser. The adjoining wine culture house features a wonderful wine cellar and a fantastic tasting with a winemaker from Gols.

A great tour around the lake with beautiful scenery, virtually no traffic, plenty of places to stop for refreshments, and a ferry ride – definitely an experience. Some gravel roads with very fine white gravel, and lots of asphalt.
