Wurbauerkogel Panorama Tower

The glass observation tower can be seen from afar in the Windischgarsten valley. The "Fascination of Rock" exhibition with the nature film "Paradise of Stone Rock" is an ideal introduction to Kalkalpen National Park . The panorama lift takes you comfortably up to the airy viewing terrace for a 360° panoramic view, from where 21 two-thousand-metre peaks can be seen in good visibility.

Ennstal Visitor Center

The Ennstal National Park Visitor Center is located between Reichraming and Großraming directly on the banks of the Enns. Beneath the green waves of the visitor center, which symbolize the sea of forest at Kalkalpen National Park, you will find the adventure exhibition "Wunderwelt Waldwildnis" with forest cinema. The fascinating nature film "On the way to the forest wilderness" immerses you in the fairytale landscape of the Reichraminger Hintergebirge: secluded gorges, diverse forests and with black stork, bear and lynx as the main characters.
