Along the route, numerous natural wonders await your discovery, such as the Dachsengraben with its massive rock formations. In Reitzenschlag, you can marvel at a unique craft: Yupitaze fish leather! At the Schuh family’s unique workshop, you can admire these exclusive products and learn interesting facts about fish leather—just be sure to make an appointment in advance. Litschau is also a town with a vibrant pub culture! So be sure to enjoy the region’s delicacies during a cozy stop at one of the local pubs.
