Unterreit offers some clear starting points for a stay focused on wildlife watching and outdoor activity: Oberreith Wildlife Park combines a long flying fox zipline with a nature trail and various animal areas. The themed tour “Radlsafari” also passes through Unterreit. Which of these experiences interests you most can be a good starting point for planning your trip and looking for a suitable holiday apartment.

Oberreith Wildlife Park: Flying Fox and Nature Trail

The flying fox zipline at Oberreith Wildlife Park is 400 metres long. It starts from a 35-metre-high observation tower, built at the highest point of the grounds. Two notable measurements define this attraction: the length of the route and the height of the tower. If you would like to include experiences like this in your stay, you can make the park one of the main focuses of your plans.

Another way to see the grounds is along the circular trail, which is more than 2.4 kilometres long and also serves as a nature trail. It leads to animal enclosures and aviaries, passes a pond and biotope, and continues to an observation beehive and a petting zoo. These different stops make the circular trail a different way to explore the park than the flying fox: here, the focus is on walking between the nature and animal areas. When planning your day, you can therefore consider the 400-metre-long individual attraction and the circular trail of more than 2.4 kilometres as options of different lengths.

Explore Unterreit on the Radlsafari

The themed tour “Radlsafari” runs through Unterreit, among other places. The Oberreith Wildlife Park is named as a highlight of the route, where you can see golden pheasants, spectacled sheep, Siberian eagle-owls and other animals. The tour thus combines a route through several places with a named destination in Unterreit. If you include it in your plans, check current trail conditions before setting off.

Wildlife watching is one distinct aspect of the tour, while the flying fox and the circular trail describe different activities at the park itself. You can consider whether you are more interested in the themed tour route, the animal areas or the attraction at the observation tower.

Culture and other experiences in the wider destination of Mühldorf Am Inn

The wider destination of Mühldorf Am Inn also offers a glimpse into local history and architectural heritage. Mühldorf a. Inn’s 500-metre-long town square is lined with colourful façades in the Inn-Salzach architectural style. The square is home to the Salzburg High Fountain, a gift from Salzburg Prince-Archbishop Johannes Ernst von Thun dating from 1692. A short walk through the old town introduces visitors to the history and architectural beauty of the district town. At the entrance to the square stands the Nagelschmiedturm, also known as the Münchener Tor; it is the oldest building in the town.

The two “Traidkästen”, Haberkasten and Kornkasten, also tell the story of an earlier purpose: built as granaries in the 15th century, the Haberkasten was later converted into a cultural centre. Since 1999, its courtyard has hosted the summer festival every year during the first two weeks of July. For specific planning, it is worth checking event dates.

Two exhibitions at the Mühldorf a. Inn History Centre and Museum focus on different subjects. “Everyday Life, Armaments, Extermination” presents the history of the Mühldorf district during the Nazi era. “Lebensader Inn” explores how people have lived with the river and how they interact with it today. The Kotter Hunting Museum offers a different, humorous and critical perspective through its exploration of the hunting scene. Outdoors, the Innaue nature experience trail features eleven interactive stations; the circular trail, educational trail and walking route connect the town of Mühldorf a. Inn with the local recreation area south of the Inn and are suitable for pushchairs and families. Another way to cross the Inn is the historic cable ferry “Josef III”.

Plan your stay and accommodation search

When looking for a holiday apartment in Unterreit, you can first decide which experiences you would like to shape your stay. The wildlife park and the Radlsafari, which passes through Unterreit, offer specific themes; architectural heritage, exhibitions and other attractions belong to the wider destination of Mühldorf Am Inn. You can keep these areas of focus separate when planning, rather than combining them into a single itinerary.
