The Promau area is a pass landscape between the Göstlinger Mendlingtal and the Hollensteiner Hammerbachtal and Sandgraben . This valley line separates the Königsberg range  ( 1,452  m above sea level ) in the north from the Gamsstein range (Hochkogel  1,774  m above sea level , Voralpe group ), two massifs of the Ybbstaler Voralpen . The first is still a largely wooded ridge, the second is an alpine limestone stock that is bare in the summit region.

The Promau is a clearing island of the two farms, and is otherwise surrounded by forest.

history

The route Lassing - Großhollenstein was an important transport route for iron ore pig iron to the small iron trade region around Hollenstein and Opponitz , and as such a side route of the Eisenstraße to the three-market district Gresten , Scheibbs and Purgstall an der Erlauf (or Scheibbs, Purgstall, Göstling).

Nature and sights

Lohhütte Promau

The valley lies in the [ Lower Austrian ] Eisenwurzen nature reserve . The area is easy hiking and mountain biking terrain, forest trails can be used to climb the surrounding mountains.

To the west is the listed Sandgraben hunting lodge , to the east is the adventure world Auf dem Holzweg in Mendlingtal , which documents the Eisenwurzen small iron trade with several systems. In this direction there is also the Lohhütte on the road , a bark hut ( Forstleutehütte) that was reconstructed by the nature park administration and is typical of Eisenwurzen .
