!!!Manhartsberg

Manhartsberg Hill, Lower Austria, low ridge with gentle slopes; 
constitutes the southern part of a granite plateau stretching between 
the River Thaya and the Wagram region (fertile stretch of land north 
of the River Danube); parts of the plateau even date from the 
Tertiary; Manhartsberg Hill marks the eastern boundary of the Bohemian 
Massif (extending over southern Bohemia, western Moravia and northern 
Austria) and the Weinviertel (one of Lower Austria´s four main 
regions); the hill gave its name to the regions situated to the west 
("Region below Manhartsberg Hill" or Weinviertel) and the east 
("Region above Manhartsberg Hill" or Waldviertel). Manhartsberg Hill 
is mainly wooded with its highest point reaching 537m.
