In between liebroad patios with meadows, woods, fertile farmlands and neat villages.

The backyards of the farms shine in bright colors and several barns still depict the beautiful artwok of carpentry. "Holzland", a tertiary hill country full of picturesque isolated farms located in the north of Inn, invites you to go on hikings and on clear days the Alpine panorama reaches from Salzkammergut to the Zugspitze.
