Buschberg

Buschberg is a mountain summit in the Leiser Berge Nature Park, reaching 491 meters and representing the highest point of the Weinviertel region. The terrain consists of forested plateau areas, and a well-equipped mountain hut sits near the top to serve visitors.

The dry meadows surrounding this summit bear traces of human activity dating to the Neolithic period. Centuries of farming and land management have shaped the landscape we see today.

The summit has long been a gathering place for nature enthusiasts and hikers from the surrounding region. People use the hut and surrounding area for group activities, talks, and sharing their interest in local natural life.

The summit is accessible by car with multiple parking areas available near the top. The mountain hut is open daily except Tuesdays and Wednesdays starting at 10:00, providing a comfortable resting point for visitors.

The dry grasslands host specialized plants that depend on limestone-rich soils to thrive. Guided tours teach visitors how to identify these particular species and understand more about their habitats.
