Experience magical moments in nature
Discover protected landscapes up close and personal
Here are some very special, different ways to experience nature in the region, whilst being sure not to harm it in any way. A wide range of guided discovery tours can be booked in summer and winter, which will take you into the most scenic parts of our landscape - for example, in a canoe or on a “cultour picnic” in summer, or an “unplugged” hike through the Dobratsch Nature Park in winter, to give just a couple of examples.
WINTER: DOBRATSCH NATURE PARK UNPLUGGED
Go on a magical journey back in time in the Dobratsch Nature Park on a guided night walk with no artificial light involved. Give free rein to the senses. Focus only on the essential. This hike through the winter landscape on snow shoes will take you from the Aichingerhütte inn along snowy paths to the chamois lookout point and back.

CULTOUR PICNIC IN HISTORIC NÖTSCH IM GAILTAL
Join us on an unhurried walk through Nötsch im Gailtal, passing old mills, castles and smithies along the way; and learn about nearly forgotten ways of life on a picnic where you can decide what’s to go on the table (or rather: table cloth). After this, enjoy a tour of the local Nötsch Museum to round off this harmonious outing. The motto of this walk is “culture in the midst of nature”.
