Legendary Wölzertal

Oberwölz-Lachtal

At 10 stations along the 3 km long circular hiking trail, life-sized wooden sculptures, such as an original woodcutter's hut, a Lindwurm children's playground, and many more, provide insight into the mystical world of legends. The starting point is located north of the city of Oberwölz at the night watchman.
