Nature parks in the SalzburgerLand province
The Power of Nature in the Riedingtal valley in the Lungau region
The Riedingtal valley in the Lungau region is a popular outing destination thanks to its pristine beauty. The nature park is characterized by its harmonious blend of largely unspoilt nature and man-made yet very natural landscapes. One of the highlights here is the opportunity for game observations. Both on the mountains and in the valleys there are plenty of interpretive panels providing information on the local flora and fauna, on biotopes and on agriculture in the Riedingtal valley. The Nature Park Center and the Brünnwandquellen viewing platform are excellent places to go for nature lovers.
