Hegerberg, Mountain summit in Sankt Pölten region, Austria.
Hegerberg is a mountain summit in the Gutenstein Alps that sits on the border between Lilienfeld and Neunkirchen districts. It stands at 1,179 meters above sea level.
The mountain took shape through the same geological forces that built the main Alpine ridge. These processes created the mountain landscape that defines Lower Austria today.
Local mountaineering traditions in the Hegerberg area reflect the strong connection between Austrian communities and their Alpine environment through regular hiking activities.
The hike to the summit from Hohenberg station takes about five hours on the marked trail. There are no mountain shelters along the way, so plan accordingly with supplies and daylight hours.
The summit has a distinctive wedge shape and offers clear sightlines toward Jochart peak and the surrounding Gutensteiner and Türnitzer mountain ranges. From the top, visitors can take in the broader Alpine terrain that stretches across the region.
