Kleeberg

The observation tower on the Kleeberg is arguably the most famous landmark in the former municipality of Labuch (since 2015 part of Gleisdorf).

Kleeberg is a 499-meter-high hill located about 4 kilometers south of Gleisdorf, between the district of Labuch and St. Margarethen an der Raab. The stair structure with over 140 steps was built in October 2001 on the initiative of artist and sculptor Fred Höfler and the then-mayor Johann Zengerer. This 31.7-meter high lookout tower was co-planned by architect DI Johann Wahlhütter.

We ask for your understanding The parking lot is open for you free of charge from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Please make sure to leave the premises by 9:00 PM as the barrier closes automatically.

Hiking around the Kleeberg observation tower Not only does autumn, as the classic hiking season, lure you into nature, but also winter with snowshoes, spring in search of the first signs of spring, or summer with a final swimming treat—the numerous hiking trails are waiting to be discovered. The circular hike "Hiking with a View" from the leisure and activity area of the Gleisdorf region "Hiking with a View" leads diversely and scenically through meadows and forests to the "Kleeberg" and the Europaberg. For a shorter round, the hike can be shortened.
