Lower Austria  >  Austria

Located at the mouth of the Kajabach. A perfect view on the River Thaya in the National Park Thayatal and home to the elusive Fekete gólya.

Description

Quiet area of a narrow floodplain forest. Walk down the river valley of the Thaya at the Austrian-Czech border. Slowly floating water invites the Jégmadár or the Fekete gólya to fish. Best chances in the morning hours. With some luck you may spot or hear a Nádi tücsökmadár. Other birds you can see are hegyi billegető and Vízirigó.

Access

You can get there on foot from the Parking at Feste Kaja (an old castle ruin, to go there click on the P on the map). From the parking it's a 20-25 minutes walk along the little creek Kajabach until you reach the river Thaya.
