Kamptal is an Austrian wine, tourism, culture and health region located in Waldviertel, Lower Austria.
To the north of Krems lies Langenlois, which is the main vine-town of Kamptal, the valley of the river Kamp.
[1] The sandstone slopes are so steep that only a thin layer of soil is retained.
Riesling thrives on these steep slopes; closer to the Danube the valley broadens and more red grapes are grown.
Another prominent town in the Kamptal is Gars am Kamp.
