Bird theme trail, Pöllau
Open
The newly designed bird theme trail leads us through the diversity of birds in the south of the Pöllau Valley Nature Park. Highlights include vast orchards and the romantic Schönauklamm gorge.
From the starting point of the bird theme trail, the route heads south. The circular route leads along the bird theme trail through the idyllic hills, forests and meadows of the Pöllau Valley Nature Park. The beautiful views of the municipalities of Pöllau and Pöllauberg and the romantic Schönauklamm gorge are the highlights of this circular hike.
