The region of Graz throughout the seasons

For instance, how about a nice picnic?
You don’t even have to pack the picnic hamper yourself. Instead, just order one from Gundis Laden in St. Radegund and enjoy it at one of the region’s best picnic spots, for instance: at Austrian Sculpture Park in Premstätten, at the Austrian Open-Air Museum in Stübing, at the vineyard of Genusstreffpunkt Höfer in Weinitzen, at one of the many parks of Graz, at an Alpine pasture in the west of the region (particularly recommended when the alpine roses are in bloom)  

To ski or no to ski, that is the question
Nature awakens and days start to get longer. While you can still enjoy great sunshine skiing at Salzstiegl, or you can already go cycling in other parts of the province. 

Cycling highlights in spring:

•  a leisurely bike ride for e-bikers and sporty touring cyclists 
•  a season kick-off on the Mur Cycling Path 
•  a tour to the Lipizzanerheimat region or to the north of Graz 
•  a training ride at Schöckl Trail Area 
•  the crazy cross-biker “Stubalpen MTB Marathon“ in May

A star is born
At Piber stud farm, spring is the most exciting time of the year. That’s because the young Lipizzan horses are born in spring – about 40 black foals every year. Black? Yes, that’s right! The famous horses become lighter with age. 
Did you know? Piber stud farm is listed as an Intangible Cultural World Heritage by UNESCO. At numerous events such as the Foal Experience Days or the Mother’s Day event, you get the chance to catch a first glimpse of the stars of tomorrow.
