    Yet it is not just this journey into the past and Peter Fürbass’s warm hospitality that make this visit so special. The peace and seclusion of the mill, the gentle babbling of the Schwarzbach stream, and the magnificent landscape with countless beautiful hiking and themed trails invite young and old alike to recharge their batteries and linger. It is also the power of the water that constantly surrounds you. The Weiße Sulm winds its way for over 29 kilometres through the expanses of Western Styria. Shortly after the source of the Weiße Sulm, about ten kilometres from the Strutz Mill, a 60-metre-high waterfall thunders down over rocky steps – a natural spectacle well worth seeing! The Strutz Mill Trail starts at the tourist information point in Wernersdorf and leads through woods, meadows and along roads to the Strutz Mill.

    Author’s recommendation

    The Strutz Mill – a unique cultural gem in the South Styria region. More specifically, in the Schilcherland. The Strutz Mill was voted Austria’s most beautiful place in 2020.
