Under the motto "Small places – big stories", selected local walks in the Roman land Carnuntum and Marchfeld lead along partly unknown paths to historic buildings and old walls, through beautiful nature and hidden lanes.
Amidst wildlife-rich forests and fertile fields, the lovely place was first mentioned in a document in 1180 and developed magnificently. You can convince yourself of this on the Eckartsau local walk and listen to exciting stories about the Donau-Auen National Park, the Marchfeldschutzdamm, Eckartsau Castle, and the castle park.
To discover the Carnuntum-Marchfeld local walks, simply download the "Ortsspaziergänge" app on your smartphone, either online as a web app or as a native app that does not require an internet connection on site. Your own position is shown on a map during the walk – so you always stay on the right path! Google Play Store or App Store
