    The shell limestone and sandy soil on the Saupurzel are a habitat for numerous rare steppe and Mediterranean plants. Since 2005, the dry areas of Krainberg-Kalbenstein and Saupurzel have been a fauna-flora habitat covering around 300 hectares.

      Very beautiful nature, with via ferrata, working hut on Sundays and holidays, partly alpine character.
