Summer holidays in the Murtal valley near Murau

In summer, the ten-seater gondola takes you up to 1,800 metres in just a few minutes. Up there, easy walks lead across alpine meadows and through the Swiss stone pine forest. Down in the valley flows the Mur, with cycle paths, a historic steam train and one of the finest golf courses in Austria.

Quiet paths across gentle alpine meadows, through the fragrant Swiss stone pine forest or up to the summit of Kreischberg. Ideal for families and anyone who loves to take it slow.

Tip: at 65 metres, the Günstner Wasserfall near Schöder is the highest waterfall in Styria. A wooden staircase path climbs alongside the falls.
