Description
The circular route provides an overview of the conditions inside the earth around Retzbach.
The Retzbach dowsing rod path aims to give visitors and interested people an overview of the conditions inside the earth at ten stations. The behaviour of animals and plants is just as important as the use of the forces for humans. The route length is almost 20 km and can be explored by bike as well as on foot. A detailed script as well as dowsing rods are available from the accommodation providers in Retzbach or at the municipal office. At the "Kultensemble Heiliger Stein" there are guided tours with an introductory course on handling the dowsing rod for groups of 15 or more people. Registrations and information at: 02942/2513
Tip: The Angergärten in Unterretzbach
The green, fertile town centre in Unterretzbach – once a common pasture, today the site of one of Austria's most beautiful Angergärten, experienced along a show garden path. From the garden pavilion, visitors start into the green. Along the gardens, display panels provide details about the gardens, their owners, and their history. Small "natural pharmacies" offer unexpected insights into naturopathy and six experience stations invite entertaining engagement with botany and climate: how does the plant communicate with the soil? What can the tamarisk do?
