A beautiful, winding dry valley with lean grassland slopes. When the snow melts and after long periods of rain, the tumbleweeds transform the valley into a watery landscape.

The dry valley lives up to its name here. Only the source of the Leinleiter is still bubbling. Nevertheless, a beautiful valley for hiking.

We were there in April 2023. One of the most beautiful valleys you can hike through. If they hadn't found a place for the Shire in New Zealand, here would be one.
