Parish Pond

Highlight • Lake

Small lake, near the large parking lot. Easily accessible even with wheelchairs. Lake very contaminated with algae, which will probably silt up in the next 1000 years. So visit now before it's too late (wink).

Kreuz Pond

Highlight • Lake

The Kreuzteich is located near the famous Green Lake and can be easily reached on foot. There is a bridge at the eastern part of the pond, and not much further there is a small water wheel. The water is very clear. Dogs are not allowed to swim in the water here, otherwise they will damage the sensitive water plants. Many rubbish bins are set up along the circular route, therefore: PLEASE dispose of the rubbish there and DO NOT throw it into the water.

Green Lake

Highlight • Lake

"The Caribbean of Styria" is the name of the Green Lake. The emerald colors and crystal clear waters make this lake a unique natural spectacle. When the snow melts on the mountains in spring, the lake fills with crystal clear spring water. The height of the water level thus depends on the amount of snow in winter. By autumn, the water is steadily falling, in winter it disappears almost completely.
