Come with us on an information tour. Tip: Don't forget binoculars or a magnifying glass, there is a lot to discover and marvel at! The starting point for exciting discoveries along the well-developed network of paths through the Murauen is Donnersdorf. With a bit of luck you might spot a white-tailed eagle, one of the rarest bird species in Styria.
At the Murturm in Mureck you can have a bird's eye view of the area. And not only that: rare sand martins are now finding steep walls for their up to 1-metre-long breeding tubes on the Mur again. Some transients and winter visitors such as the great egret can also be observed in the biosphere reserve.
Next stop is at the Liebmannsee before heading to the Trummerbach-Lahn, where a special fish called the mudbiter lives. It can survive for weeks in the mud, even in dried-up waters, by swallowing air and absorbing oxygen through its intestines. Continue to the Wäschbach stream, where grass snakes are often sighted. Along the Grenzmur, wagtails are often to be found. But also the protected fish species of the goldstone bittern is happy about the widening of the Mur in Sicheldorf, where it finds ideal spawning grounds.
The special world of the biosphere park in the south of the Thermen- & Vulkanland of Styria needs considerate visitors so that the untouched animal and plant world is not disturbed. Thank you!
