The Rax is a mountain at the border of Lower Austria and Styria situated in the Northern Limestone Alps.

Its highest peak is the Heukuppe at 2007m. Together with the nearby Schneeberg they are called the Wiener Hausberge. From Hirschwang at the north-east foot of the mountain a cable car goes to about 1500m height. The Rax and the Schneeberg are separated by the Höllental (hell valley). The local snowboard-crew is called "RAXATTAXX"
