Himmelsleiter
Lookout tower
Description
The Himmelsleiter is a viewing platform in the Hochmoor Nature Park in Schrems, which offers a perfect panoramic view of the moorland landscape.
The wooden structure consists of 58 spruce trunks arranged in pairs, each measuring 19.4 m in length. Between these trunks, the 108-step steel staircase with several mezzanines leads up to the 33 m long platform at a height of approx. 18.4 m. Steel tension rods and wooden pressure bars between the trunks as well as a steel substructure give the ladder to heaven stability.
Freely accessible from April to October.
