Gently rolling hills, almost completely striped with vineyards, the medieval character of its villages and the picturesque banks of the Danube combine to a delightful whole. The mild climate, influenced by the river valley, sunny wine slopes and the special geology mean that excellent wines are produced here, appreciated by wine connoisseurs all over the world.  

What is more, along the 33 kilometre long stretch of the Danube from Melk to Krems there is a wealth of historic buildings to be visited.  The Wachau also boasts a high density of restaurants and inns where you can enjoy top quality regional cooking at reasonable prices and which promise a delicious balance of local ingredients and creative flair.
