Hollenstein an der Ybbs

Tucked along the Ybbs in Lower Austria’s Ybbstal Alps, Hollenstein an der Ybbs is a place whose character is shaped by the narrow valley and its wooded slopes. The settlement belongs to the Mostviertel, a region whose alpine south differs markedly from the orchard country farther north. Nearby Mendlingtal preserves a Triftanlage, a historic system for moving timber by water, recalling the central role of forests in local livelihoods. Hollenstein also lies in the Naturpark Niederösterreichische Eisenwurzen, where streams, woodland and valleys set the scene for walking and cycling.
