Southern Styria
Gentle hills and sunny vineyards stretch across Southern Styria, close to Austria's second largest city, Graz. The landscape is characterised by the foothills of the Koralpe, the Lassnitz Valley and the Leibnitzer Feld. Between the large cultural landscape of the Lippizanerheimat and the Südsteirisches Weinland Nature Park, there are numerous enjoyable paths for hikers and cyclists. An interesting mix of museums, sights and idyllic vineyards rounds off a stay in Austria's south.

The Wine Roads of Southern Styria
Among the most popular destinations in southern Styria are the wine roads. Along the South Styrian Wine Road, the Sausal Wine Road and the Schilcher Wine Road, South Styria presents itself from its most beautiful side. In the hilly landscape, wine and other fruits thrive in the region's mild climate, forming an impressive cultural landscape. Buschenschanken and inns serve local products ranging from wine to Backhenderl (Baked Chicken) and Kernöl (Seed Oil). If you want to explore this magnificent landscape in an active way, you can jump on your bike. The steep climbs, however, require good personal fitness or a full battery for your e-bike. Starting from the wine taverns and wineries, there are of course also leisurely hiking trails through this unique cultural landscape in the south of Austria.

Visiting the towns of Southern Styria

Leibnitz is centrally located in Styria at the confluence of the Mur and Sulm rivers. The small town is an ideal starting point for hiking and cycling tours, but also invites you to visit the beautiful main square and the historic Seggau Castle and let the relaxed ambience drive you through the day.
Schloss Seggau is more than just a castle: Like a small town, it sits atop a gentle hill in the ...
