Summer in the Mostviertel
Enjoy a refreshing summer retreat at the lakes and on the mountains of the Mostviertel region.
On hot summer days, you find shadow and coolness in idyllic mountain woods or along babbling rivers in the valley. The nature itself becomes the stage for adventure seekers and art lovers.
Hiking, cycling and mountain biking through the Mostviertel means that now, you can decide for yourself where to go next. On this journey along fertile valleys, rows of pear trees providing shade and through rugged mountain landscapes it is easy to leave all your cares behind and focus on the things that really matter.
Of course, the hot season would not be complete without the plunge into the cool waters of the Mostviertel. The Mostviertel lakes and riverside pools provide a pleasant way to cool off on the hottest days of the year.
Cosy outdoor dining areas and cultural treats
Which better place is there to linger in the summer than the typically Austrian outdoor dining areas and gardens of the restaurants and taverns of the Mostviertel. The culinary spectrum offered there ranges from "Dirndl" (cornelian cherry) chutney to Ybbstal trout all of which come from the rich Mostviertel landscape. Travellers, however, not only enjoy the many possibilities for eating and drinking, also the ravenous hunger of their minds can be satisfied here: In summer time, nature becomes the backdrop to many special festivals – such as the Gipfelklaenge festival in the Mostviertel mountains, the Kulturglut festival at special cultural and natural sites or the wellenklaenge festival at the idyllic Lake Lunz.
