Raab Gorge
The Raab, whose source is the Osser, has struck its way through the mountains between Arzberg, Gutenberg and Mortantsch for thousands of years. At over 15 km, this is today the site of the longest gorge in Austria and an Austrian and European conservation area.
A varied and easily traversable trail leads along the river at the foot of steep forested slopes and past cliffs. The river has a mountain character, but also features several shallow areas, meanders and small gravelly surfaces, which allow you to enjoy the water. If you keep an eye on the surrounding living world you can see Fire salamanders, Black storks, kingfishers or even Eurasian eagle owls and Rosalia longicorn.
