Fluvial woodland safari

Dive into an exciting adventure! Off we go to the Stuiben Falls under expert guidance, which you will then explore in a very different way. Rappelling, climbing, jumping and sliding in proper gear are the order of the day.

Anyone who believes they have to travel a long way off to experience wilderness will be amazed in Pflach. Just a short walk from the town you are right in the middle of a dense, damp fluvial landscape in Tirol’s River Lech. This area is flooded on a regular basis, which alters the look of the landscape. To live in this dynamic area, the plants and animals have adapted in an amazing way.

On a variety-packed, easy to navigate path, our Nature Park guides take us through the terrain: To the ‘Vogelturm’, along the banks of the Lech and into the fluvial woodland. With a little bit of luck you might even get to see some rare inhabitants, including amphibians and birds. For those of you who then want to head out on an exploratory journey off your own bat, the bird experience realm and the ‘Vogelturm’ will tempt you to stay for a while.

Look forward to an exciting and adventure-packed ­excursion with all the family. Suitable for children aged 8 and over.
