Helenental

Highlight • Gorge

On normal days, the traffic in the Helenental is considerable. Unfortunately, the cycle paths that run parallel are not particularly asphalted, many thresholds, some of which are covered with leaves, are hardly recommended for racing bikes. And the cycle paths are not continuous.
It's a shame because the track is a real highlight.

Mayerling Hunting Lodge and Carmelite Monastery

Highlight • Religious Site

This beautiful property is overshadowed by a dramatic story: Crown Prince Rudolf - the son of Emperor Franz Josef I and Empress Elisabeth - and his lover Mary Vetsera died here in 1889. You can learn more about history on a tour of the former castle. Today it is used as a Carmelite monastery.

Rohrbacher Saddle (573 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Rohrbacher Sattel connects Schwarzensee and Maria Reisenmarkt with Bad Vöslau. It lies along the ridge between Galgenriegel (590 m) and Dernberg (640 m) in the southern Vienna Woods. The name probably comes from the south-west driveway that runs in the Rohrbach valley. The town of Rohrbach is only touched, as is the town of Steinfeld. It's an inconspicuous saddle with a little tortoise very close to the apex. Coming from Vienna or Bad Vöslau it is a scooter pass in the direction of the Gutenstein Alps.
