Description

We would like to invite you to combine your hike in ApfelLand-Stubenbergsee and the Pöllau Valley Nature Park with art and culture and culinary delights.

Download the free "Hearonymus" app, select "Churches in ApfelLand-Stubenbergsee and Pöllau Valley Nature Park" in the "Guides" section and your smartphone will become an audio guide. Churches and their organs and bells are presented and brought to life acoustically, so you can get to know the advantages of an individual tour with the sound of bells and organs.

The individual organ hiking tours can be easily combined with each other and walked in both directions, so that everything is possible, from a short hike to a long-distance hike.

A few tips on correct and fair behavior in the forest: (Source: www.bundesforste.at)

Hikers should avoid visiting the forest approx. 1.5 hours before sunrise and after sunset, as wild animals are particularly active at this time.Plastic bottles, handkerchiefs, cigarette butts etc. have no place in the forest! Please make sure that you do not leave any garbage in the forest.Camping and making fires is strictly forbidden in the forest!In principle, every person in the forest is allowed to collect 2 kg of mushrooms and berries per day for their own use. It is only prohibited if the forest owner expressly forbids it.
