Nice little hike near Opponitz, not far from our home.
To get a bit more exercise, we start hiking from the bus stop.
It's a shame the route is very short - therefore also suitable for families.

Opponitz (also known as the fly-fishing village).
On the banks of the clear, emerald-colored Ybbs River, framed by the surrounding mountains, this small village lies in a verdant setting.


The holiday village on the Ybbstal Cycle Path is a destination for hikers, cyclists, and nature lovers. The fly-fishing trails are a major draw for fly fishermen from Austria and abroad.
