    If you visit the Wilhelmsdorf Nature Conservation Center and find the Ried educational trails too short, this hike is recommended. Through the Eulenbruck, formerly the mightiest raised bog of the Ried, to the peat excavation lakes, over the former railway embankment to the Ostrach, and over the wide meadows back to Wilhelmsdorf. Along the way, you will pass the pastures of Pinzgauer cattle, Belted Galloways, and Galloways.
