YOUNG VITICULTURE Only with the decline of livestock farming after the Second World War did large-scale viticulture begin in the Seewinkel in the 1960s. Many meadows and pastures disappeared. The vineyards and solitary trees have brought new structural elements into the previously open, wide grassland. The warm climate and the moist winds from Lake Neusiedl especially allow white and sweet wines to thrive here.

THE OLDEST PASTURE The area of the Lange Lacke has been extensively grazed for centuries. While some families from Apetlon used to live off livestock, grazing today mainly serves to preserve this species-rich cultural landscape. As the only continuously grazed area in the Seewinkel, the pastures around Lange Lacke are a special feature and serve as a reference area for the National Park's other grazing projects.

Hike to Austria's oldest WWF protected areaThe last untouched puszta areas in Austria around the Lange Lacke were leased by the WWF back in 1963 and thus saved from destruction. The lake - a unique bird paradise - varies in size between almost 10 km² and complete desiccation.
