    The wild romantic scenery of the Ochsenschlucht delights every nature lover. At the lower course of the Feistritzbach, which emerges from the gorge, wide gravel areas and a branched water system form the perfect adventure playground for children. Driftwood, water and stones stimulate the children's imagination, making playing an intense experience of nature.
