Due to its attractive landscape and its historic castles, the WACHAU has been announced as a world heritage by the UNESCO. The WACHAU is one of the world's most beautiful river valleys, a wine growing area renowned around the world, a terrace landscape and an historical event.

13 communities enclose this world heritage, a 180 km long distance trail - and our village  Emmersdorf is a part of it. The incredible landscape with its historical roads invites to exciting tours. Come and enjoy!
