The preservation of the traditional cultural landscape with its diversity contributes to the conservation of native biodiversity. With growing environmental awareness, sustainable tourism is gaining importance and supports the protection of nature as well as the development of the region.
The Lafnitz Valley offers a diverse animal and plant world that can be explored by hikers and cyclists. The natural river landscapes along the Lafnitz are among the rare and valuable habitats in Central Europe. With its river meanders, the Lafnitz Valley is one of the last unregulated lowland waterways in Austria.
Guided nature experiences allow for the discovery of floodplain forests and meadows, the introduction to herbs and rare plants, and tracking the animals' trails. The tours are accompanied by nature guides and can be selected individually.
