You can return to the valley on the summer toboggan run or on a mountain kart! The best way to get to Wilden Berg Mautern is by train, the Wildpark Shuttle takes you from the station directly to the valley station.

Erzberg adventure

Abenteuer Erzberg combines active mining above ground with former mining underground and at the same time provides a glimpse into the future. The largest cab in the world will take you up the mountain with 1,217 horsepower and is sure to be the highlight of your trip. You could also explore the labyrinth underneath the mountain or experience a live blast as 80,000 tons of rock are blown up!

On selected dates, a special Erzbergbahn train will take you to the Erzberg adventure. The Hauly picks you up directly from the station!

Lurgrotte Peggau & Semriach

The Lurgrotte is the largest active water cave in Austria. Accessible from two sides, the guided tours provide a fascinating insight into the history of our planet.

Thanks to the well-maintained and illuminated paths, the exciting journey into the world of stalactites and stalagmites is safe. Experience a natural wonder that will leave a lasting impression on you!

The starting points for a visit to the Lurgrotte are Semriach and Peggau. Crossing the cave is no longer possible after a flood in 1975.

Austrian
Open-air museum Stübing

With over 100 historical buildings on an area of 65 hectares, the Austrian open-air museum in Stübing is one of the largest open-air museums in Europe. The 20 residential buildings and numerous special buildings all originate from other parts of Austria. The arrangement of the buildings in the valley conveys the impression of being in a historic farming village. The grocer’s shop, school, mill and smithy give an impression of how shopping, work and raising children worked in everyday life back then.

Rural vehicles and tools as well as numerous exhibitions, some of which change every year, round off the journey into the past.

Admission is free for young people and students under the age of 19!

We would be happy to put together a customized package for your group excursion/school trip/class trip/polter round including Overnight stay, meals and supporting program.
The program can be supplemented as desired – for example with hikes along the Styrian Iron Trail (starting point at the hotel)
