Tips from the Community
The former tin and leadware factory Georg Winiwarter was founded in 1851 in Gumpoldskirchen, directly on the Wiener Neustädter Canal. The plant produced metals and leadware for generations until regular operations ceased in the 1970s. For a long time, the abandoned area on the Thermenradweg cycle path was considered a well-known "Lost Place" with striking industrial ruins, which have since been partially dismantled.

The Laxenburg bathing pond, which has established itself as a popular and well-maintained natural recreation area in the region during the summer, was created from the redesigned former Berger pond. The area is located in the immediate vicinity of the historic Wiener Neustadt Canal and offers, in addition to clean sunbathing areas, various recreational facilities such as a beach volleyball court. For bathing during the summer months, visitors have access to modern infrastructure and a regulated advance ticket sale via web shops and vending machines.

The Wiener Neustädter Canal was built in the late 18th century to originally transport wood and coal from Lower Austria to Vienna. Today, the historic waterway primarily serves as a popular local recreation area for walks and bike tours in the Industrieviertel. Along the canal, a well-developed towpath invites you to take excursions where you can discover numerous historic locks and witnesses of the industrial past.

The Kernbichler Radlheurige is located directly on the Wiener Neustädter Kanal in Pfaffstätten and is therefore an ideal and officially certified resting point for cyclists between Wiener Neustadt and Vienna. In addition to a cozy atmosphere and regional specialties, the establishment also offers 100 percent self-produced quality products and e-bike charging stations. It is open seasonally in good weather and also serves as a popular meeting point for excursionists and locals.

The Gut Trumau was donated to the monastery in the year 1138 by the Babenberg Margrave Leopold IV for the economic security of the monastery under Abbot Gottschalk. The civilian population was resettled according to the rules of the order, and the Cistercians established a grange, a fortified farmstead. In addition to arable farming and viticulture, sheep farming was practiced. There was also its own mill.

Art Nouveau houses actually adorn the place: along the cycle path, however, we are amazed by the Berndorfer Guglzipf,
