Our daffodils bloom from mid-May to early June

From the parking lot in the Hauergraben you walk on a forest road to the meadow. You will be rewarded with a sea of daffodils.

This wonderful meadow of daffodils is in PRIVATE OWNERSHIP - so when entering the meadow, we respect the rights of the landowners who tolerate walking on the meadow or picking flowers.
Let's remember that

    Some of the daffodils in Upper Austria are under nature protection
    we don't leave existing, well-trodden paths and don't make campfires
    we don't leave any rubbish behind
    we pick as many daffodils as there is space between our thumb and forefinger and we don't lie down in the flowers
    we never dig up onions
    larger amounts of daffodils in closed rooms cause strong odor, which can also be harmful to health
