Lässer Au Knittelfeld

A 3.4 km long trail leads through the area characterised by typical river structures such as side arms, gravel banks, fish banks, alluvial forests and car ponds in the Murtal adventure region in Styria.
The "Murerlebnis" project, which was funded as part of the EU LIFE+ Nature programme, was implemented in cooperation with the Province of Styria, the Ministry for a Livable Austria, the Western Construction District Administration, the municipalities and the fishing rights holders. The aim was to restore or improve the near-natural floodplains and river landscapes. Flood protection measures were implemented, endangered animal and plant species were preserved and a leisure and recreation area was created. Typical river structures with side arms, gravel banks, shallow banks, alluvial forests and car ponds have been restored. A path leads through the 3.4 km long area, which is an oasis of tranquillity for all those seeking relaxation and nature lovers. The benches and information boards along the path are a creative eye-catcher. These serve as oases of relaxation and sources of information. They were designed by the pupils of the BG/BRG Judenburg. The project was realised between 2010 and the end of 2013.
