Hike up the Lunzberg

From the village center, it is a half-hour walk to the summit cross at around 1,000 meters above sea level. Members of the rural youth have revitalized the site, installed new benches, repaired the paths and renovated the cross. In addition, a show beehive at the viewpoint offers exciting insights into the life of bees. A display board with lots of information was also set up here by the Lunz Beekeepers' Association.
