Ökoregion Kaindorf Pleasure Tour
Open
This tour takes us around the Großharter natural pond. Along the way are regional producers who make the land the "Garden of Austria". A pleasure tour like something out of a picture book.
On the pleasure tour we cycle from one enjoyable highlight to the next. After the flat "gliding section" from Kaindorf to Sebersdorf, we come to Obermayerhofen Castle and then to Harter Teich, where we can stop for the first time. Further culinary delights are available in Auffen-Großhart at the Straußenwirt and on the way back at various Buschenschänken. The tour ends with a visit to the Höfler oil mill with a delicatessen and a guided tour of the mill.
