Vacation in Thayatal
The Thayatal is a jewel, a jewel that connects worlds.
This valley is a strange world, a transition from soft to coarse, a myth where you can just go and see it in real life.
A valley with steep cliffs, colorful flower meadows, softriparian vegetation, pieces that evoke jungles and wet forests.
The valley is a national park. Although one of the smallest national parks in Austria, but with a wealth of species.
Many different plants and animals and mushrooms have their natural habitat here, such as the unique black stork, the otter and the emerald lizard.
