As a memento of your hike along the Edlerseeweg in the Waldviertel, you can pick up a hiking badge from Geras Abbey and/or the Geras Nature Park at the abbey shop in Geras Abbey or at the Hubertushaus in the Geras Nature Park.
Hiking badges are round plaques, designed and inscribed using pyrography, which serve as both a souvenir and a recognition of outstanding achievements. Dedicated hiking badge collectors are rewarded with a free premium hiking badge. For more information, visit www.wandermarken.at.
