Merkenstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

Merkenstein Castle was rebuilt in 1844. It has been renovated true to the original and is privately owned. The property is therefore not open to the public.

Ruins of Merkenstein Castle

Highlight • Castle

It's worth it because of the sense of adventure that comes over you when you walk along the narrow forest paths and look at the old walls.

Trail Reviews

Franz Kahri 🇦🇹

November 20, 2023, Rundwanderung über den Hohen Lindkogel

https://www.niederoesterreich.at/a-rundwandel-ueber-den-hohen-lindkogel Today we went back to the Vienna Woods. The destination was the Hohe Lindkogel, but not the usual start in Bad Vöslau but in Pottenstein. The weather forecast promised dry weather, but April weather was actually forecast. Sun and drizzle.
