!!!Bucklige Welt

Bucklige Welt, hill country on the  Alpenostrand, wooded upland area 
in the south-eastern part of Lower Austria, between the Semmering pass 
(in the west), the Rosaliengebirge Mountains and the Oberpullendorf 
Basin (in the east) and the mountainous Wechsel region (in the south); 
around 400-800 m high. Geologically the Bucklige Welt belongs to 
the Central Alps. The landscape is characterised by wide valleys and 
numerous mountain tops formed by coarse gneiss; to the north it is 
drained by the River Pitten, and to the south by the River Rabnitz and 
the Zoebernbach stream. Main towns:  Aspang-Markt in the Pitten Valley 
and  Kirchschlag in der Buckligen Welt in the Zoebern Valley.
