Description
The largest nature park in Lower Austria is also the most impressive for many. This is partly due to the wealth of adventures that await in the impressive landscape, and partly due to the tranquil, unspoilt nature around the Ötscher mountain - with its inimitable interplay of gentle alpine pastures, deep gorges, waterfalls and caves. Adventure stations at the nature park entrances add informative and playful aspects to hiking.
The Ötscher-Tormäuer Nature Park is accessible to the public via the Mariazell Railway. The seven nature park stations are: Winterbach, Puchenstuben, Gösing, Reith, Wienerbruck, Erlaufklause and Mitterbach.
Hiking cabs run between Mariazell - Erlaufsee - Lackenhof.
