These Scottish cattle are an attraction in Herrenwies, and an additional enclosure with Mangalitza wool pigs has now been built. Always worth a trip for locals and tourists, and the Herrenwieser campsite is also very close by.

I wouldn't call the cattle an absolute attraction... but yes, something different than the run-of-the-mill cattle

A very nice path for walking, and simply beautiful in winter.
