The Journey is the destination: Weinviertel section of the Camino de Santiago

Join the Jakobsweg pilgrimage trail and walk through the gently rolling hills of the Weinviertel at your own pace: 153km leading through the picturesque Weinviertel along a section of the Camino de Santiago – known locally as the Jakobsweg. 153,000 steps to finding yourself.


The Weinviertel section of the Camino de Santiago is easy to manage in six phases, with individual stretches ideal for a weekend pilgrimage trail experience. The landscapes encountered along the Weinviertel section of the Camino de Santiago (Jakobsweg) are as different as the reasons why people choose to undertake a pilgrimage walk – leaving your everyday cares behind, looking for meaning or simply conquering a sporting challenge. Passing vineyards and quaint cellar lanes, crossing the Buschberg (the highest point in the Weinviertel) and tacking along the Wagram ridge, this part of the Camino de Santiago, which is sometimes referred to in English as the Way of Saint James, stretches for more than 150km from the northern Weinviertel to the town of Krems an der Donau.

A taste of nature

Anyone looking to enjoy the wonders of nature at first hand will be in their element in Austria’s national parks and nature reserves. The Weinviertel is home to the Thayatal Valley National Park and the Danube Wetlands, as well as the Leiser Berge nature reserve. The protected natural habitat of the March-Thaya-Auen wetlands is also unmissable!

Amazing landscapes, animal magic, bounteous plant life

See the range of different landscapes that the Weinviertel has to offer. Discover the local flora and fauna on the region’s extensive network of hiking trails and footpaths. What do you need to bring along? Time, time and even more time. All that’s left is for you to immerse yourself and enjoy this amazing experience!

Our recommendations

  • The Leiser Berge Nature Reserve is located in the heart of the Weinviertel. The views from the top of the Buschberg (491m) hill, the highest point in the Weinviertel, are in a class of their own. The landscapes cover a full spectrum: farmers’ fields, forest and meadowland are dotted throughout the reserve.
  • Covering some 1,330 hectares, the Thayatal National Park bordering the Waldviertel region is home to an impressive range of flora and fauna. A rich variety of plants and animals live side by side here in this amazing space. And thanks to its border with the Czech Republic’s Národní park Podyjí, the outdoor enjoyment transcends national boundaries.
  • The Donau-Auen National Park stretches between the Austrian and Slovakian capitals. Covering more than 9,300 hectares, this area between Vienna and Bratislava is the last major riverside wetlands reserve in Central Europe. Left to follow its natural course, a 36km section of the Danube is the national park’s lifeblood.
  • The March-Thaya-Auen in the north-east of the Weinviertel – among Central Europe’s most interesting wetlands – are not just a great tip for fans of nature. In this unique environment you can reconnect with your inner self, enjoy the moment and feel just how beautiful life can be.
