Leisurely walk with interesting insights into a piece of intact nature! The Oppenberg Moor is a habitat for cotton grass and orchid populations, fever clover, marsh blood-eye, round-leaved sundew and an important amphibian spawning ground.

In Rottenmann in the district of Liezen, Josef Schlemmer manages a unique moor of national importance. In September 2020, he was one of three winners of the "Naturwiese 2020" state award.
