In the middle of the Trofaiach recreation area - the Kehrwald, more precisely the 1.4 kilometer long Panoramaweg - is the extremely lovely and interestingly designed bird trail. Among other things, you will find the so-called insect hotel, a Kneipp facility and a wonderful biotope. A really beautiful spot that invites you to stay in Erzberg-Leoben.
