National Park Thayatal invites you to the traditional herb festival on Assumption Day in the National Park building. Herb priest Benedikt and herb witch Helga Donnerbauer will devote their attention this year to the healing and magical effects of trees and shrubs "along the garden fence" - at the transition between garden and wilderness, the realm of the "Witch." Illustrative workshops and seminars round off the varied programme.
A market with regional delicacies and local herbal products is an integral part of the festival. Also, the culinary treats do not disappoint. Delicacies from Waldviertel, as well as fine dishes from nature's kitchen await the guests.
