The Lurgrotte is the largest active water cave in Austria. It lies about 25 km north of Graz and crosses the Tanneben, a karst area between the towns of Semriach and Peggau. Through them, the Lurbach flows from Semriach down into the Murtal.

Hiking

What also makes the Lurgrotte stand out is that there is also the option of an adventure tour where you can hike through almost the entire grotto to the other side to Semriach. You shouldn't be squeamish and have to climb a bit and be able to endure the ice-cold stream water.
