Fossils – Feeling very close to the ancient oceans
The nature park lake Weissensee - a geologic variety amidst the Gailtal valley Alps. With our experienced nature park ranger Robert, you follow the traces of ancient rocks proving the presence of living beings in long gone seas. On your way to Alm hinterm Brunn you'll encounter impressive rock faces with puzzle stones of dinosaur bones and fossilized shells marking the eventful geological history.
Details: These moments are possible thanks to our ranger.
