Description

You can learn everything you need to know about bees from 13 educational panels as you stroll along the old Arniger Weg trail between the Arniger Bridge on the Kalser Landesstraße road and the Braugasthof Glocknerblick inn in Arnig. A display apiary with an open hive provides insights into the inner workings of a bee colony. If you are interested and arrange it in advance, you can also visit the nearby Glocknerbiene apiary run by farmer Sebastian at the Niederarnigerhof. There you will find the apiary, as well as the storage and processing rooms.
