Pinkafeld.
Vineyards and quiet hills in Southern Burgenland
Wine TastingHiking
Pinkafeld lies in Southern Burgenland, set among vineyard slopes and wooded hills. The area is known for its wine production, where small, family-run cellars line the lanes leading out from the town center and open their doors for tastings.
Beyond the vines, the land rises toward forested ridges and nature reserves, crossed by paths through meadows and orchard strips. The town itself keeps a quiet, working character, with streets that still serve the surrounding farms and vineyards.
Life here follows the wine calendar: harvest in early autumn fills the cellars with activity, while spring blossom and early summer bring walkers out onto the vineyard paths. Local kitchens draw on regional produce served in gasthaus dining rooms scattered through town and nearby villages.
