styrian eisenwurzen nature and geopark

The nature parks are scattered all over Austria - almost like apples in meadows. Each one has its own hobbyhorse. In the case of the more alpine nature and geopark Steirische Eisenwurzen, it is on the one hand the flora and fauna and on the other hand the strong word "geo", which mainly comes into play around the GeoDorf Gams and is even so important that UNESCO has designated the region a GeoPark.

A nature park is there to hold up natural treasures, moreover, the sustainable use of the cultural landscapes shaped over the centuries is the central theme. Nature park specialties partners produce delicacies around scattered fruit meadows, herb gardens and more. The nature park hosts take these specialties and conjure up regional delicacies from them and otherwise it's "protect by using". This also works well with the nature in forest and meadow as well as with the geology in the Geopark.

unesco geopark

The GeoDorf Gams is embedded in the Styrian Eisenwurzen. This and the geological deposits around it are decisive for the fact that UNESCO has taken over the protection of this region. As the only Geopark in Styria, the Styrian Eisenwurzen is truly unique. Geopark, by the way, is not a legally established protection category, but a predicate for areas that have a rich geological heritage and a good strategy for sustainable development.

The Styrian Eisenwurzen Nature Park is characterized by magnificent forests, romantic river valleys and idyllic farms. All this connects and offers the nature park communities, whereby each community, each place or even each resting place, each forest clearing, each meadow spot and each mountain peak has its uniqueness and its special features.
