In this forest, you'll find some wooden houses built on stilts. It looks rustic and original. It makes you want to be a child again and spend your holidays here :)

Next to the church in Auffen, you will find this park. Here you can learn more about your inner self on a sundial embedded in the ground and also experience water applications yourself. Furthermore, the park is also the starting point for the Kneipp movement trail with various stations.

187 steps to "happiness". But in between, there are also resting places along the way up to catch your breath. The view at the top is really beautiful. Riegersburg, Geschriebenstein, Wechsel... everything is there. And of course, there's also a bench at the very top to take a break. I liked it.

A beautifully landscaped pond. Perfect for a short stroll. And afterwards, a coffee in the pondside café. If you can find a seat, that is ;)

This café is actually called "Cafe Idylle." But never mind. The coffee here is really good. Insider tip: Be sure to try the orange cake, if there's any left :)
