Pfaffenberg, Mountain summit in Lower Austria, Austria
Pfaffenberg is a mountain summit located near Vienna in Lower Austria, with views across the Danube River and the surrounding Wienerwald forest. The peak sits amid dense woodland that covers its slopes completely.
The summit was inhabited in early times, with archaeological finds showing human presence dating back to ancient periods. Evidence of this long occupation remains scattered across the location.
Local people use the summit as a place to walk and spend time outdoors, especially on weekends when groups explore the surrounding forest trails. The location has become a natural gathering spot for those seeking fresh air and simple recreation.
Well-marked hiking trails lead to the summit from nearby parking areas, with the main route taking about one hour to reach the top. The paths are walkable in all seasons but require extra care during wet or snowy conditions.
