St. Angler-wirt
The vast area is reserved exclusively for Stanglwirt anglers and is crossed by a lovely mountain stream about 14 km long, where the fish find numerous flat or shallow places to linger.

For fishing fans, the Stanglwirt becomes the St. Angler-wirt. The fast-flowing mountain stream, nearly 14 km long, which rises in the Kaisergebirge range and crosses our land with no tributaries, features numerous flat or shallow places where the fish love to linger.
So anyone who wants to have not only a wonderful outdoor experience at the foot of the Wilder Kaiser, but also the opportunity to make a fine catch in private fishing grounds, will strike lucky at the Stanglwirt.
Just for fun
Catch and release
From May to September you can fish every day from 5 a.m.to 10 p.m. for river and rainbow trout, char, grayling, indigenous Tyrolean trout and Danube salmon. To maintain the environmental balance in our fishing grounds for the long-term, all fishing is on a "catch and release" basis and barbless hooks must be used. By the way, please note the closed seasons for fishing which must be observed: grayling (1 Jan - 15 May), river trout (1 Oct - 28 Feb), river char (1 Oct - 31 Mar).
