View of Hardegg and Hardegg Castle from Reginafelsen

Highlight • Viewpoint

The viewing point is on the way from Hardegg to the Maxplateau. Access is almost a climb, but there is also a handrail. Great view of the Hardegg Castle and suburb.

View of Hardegg and Thayatal from Maxplateau

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Maxplateau and the natural viewing platform, a little way below, offer a wonderful view of Hardegg, the smallest town in Austria and the Thayatal National Park with its countless hiking trails.

Hardegg

Highlight • Settlement

Community of 1,300 people near the border with the Czech Republic. The castle is particularly worth seeing. Hardegg is the smallest town in Austria and the center of the Thayatal National Park.

Old Customs House Hardegg – Podyjí National Park Information Point

Highlight • Rest Area

Former Czech customs house, today a small information point for the Narodni Park Podyji and a gallery about the history of the Thayatal Bridge. A detour is worthwhile!

Thaya River Border Crossing Bridge (Thayatal National Park)

Highlight • Bridge

Don't forget your passport when hiking to the Czech Republic! A place steeped in history that brings back memories of terrible personal fates! We met a man whose family was separated by the border for many years; they only saw each other on occasional visits. Bunkers, customs houses and the remains of the Iron Curtain in Čížov are reminders of a bad past. How nice it is that people from both countries can meet again while hiking in the large shared national park.

Thayabrücke Inn

Highlight • Restaurant

The inn was a real highlight for me. I can really recommend stopping here at the end of the tour and having something to eat and/or drink. The food was excellent and the service friendly. Open daily from April to October. Mon.–Thurs. 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Fri.–Sat. 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sun. 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Kitchen opens at 11:30 a.m. When I'm hiking nearby again, I'm looking forward to stopping here again! The business doesn't rely on the fact that there isn't much to go to in the area anyway - no, even the "day trippers" who may never come back here get excellent quality!

Clock Tower of Hardegg

Highlight • Monument

The essentially medieval defense tower with a steep hipped roof was part of the fortifications and was renovated several times - most recently in 1928.
