Vorau is always worth a visit: The only still active Augustinian canons' monastery, the open-air museum or the underground passages Sub Terra Vorau attract numerous visitors. But you can also discover a lot during a walk through the village center.
Timetables and travel information can be found at Österreichische Bundesbahnen (ÖBB) or at Verkehrsauskunft Verbundlinie. For local transportation we recommend the SAM-Sammeltaxi Oststeiermark.
