Tips

Typical for the Schwarzachtal and especially in the area of the Seebachalmen are the stone walls that demarcate the pastures for the cattle. The advantage and certainly the main reason for the complex construction of the walls is the weather resistance compared to wooden fences.

These stone walls were assembled and leveled under the most difficult conditions and with the greatest labor.

If you walk along here you ask yourself: how many days, weeks, months or years was worked on these walls. There was more than enough "building material" in the surrounding meadows.
