Description
On the hikes, you pass by the only three full-time farms in the Lackenhof/Langau area (Freudental, Reitbauer, Dachsbach). Those who hike over the Polzberg to Gaming in summer have the opportunity to cool off in the solar-heated Ötscherland pool. A visit to the Gaming Charterhouse is also recommended.
Sights in Gaming: folk art collection in the arcades of the town hall, Marian column, pillory column from the year 1643, the Calvary hill opposite the Charterhouse (from the Calvary hill you can enjoy a beautiful view of the Charterhouse complex), the parish church – a late Gothic building completed in the year 1510.
