Brief description

The Myrafalls with their beautiful hiking trails and breathtaking water world are the perfect destination for hikers or families of all ages.

For public transport on Sundays and public holidays during the summer holidays, a bus runs seven times daily from Pernitz station to Muggendorf and back (hourly from 10:23 a.m. – except 1:23 p.m.)

Description

The Myrafalls were made accessible in 1885 by the Austrian Alpine Club and have since been maintained by the Pernitz Muggendorf section.

Since autumn 2007, a lot has changed along the Myrafalls and around the Hausstein.
11 information panels accompany you along this impressive landscape. Learn how the power of water has been used since 1783 as a driving force for wood processing or electricity generation. The residents of the valley landscape also used the water wheels for grinding barley, wheat, and oats.
Take a walk in nature, enjoy the wonderful view from the Hausstein, and then relax at one of our friendly hosts, for example in the Myrastub'n, at the Karnerwirt, or in the mountain inn Mamauwiese.
Our little guests will enjoy a climbing paradise and a lovingly designed water playground;
Raft adventure ride included at the Myrateich.

(Admission: adults €5,--, children 6-14 years €1.50).
