Hi.

Today i will write about trips you can make outside of Graz. A very nice location not far away is the Lipizzaner  world Piber. It is part of the famous spanish horse riding school. The entrance fee is 11 Euro for an adult, students pay 8 Euro. 

Another nice location outside of Graz is the Riegersburg. It is located in the east of styria. One car hour away from Graz. The rock is visible from far away. The Riegersburg is 850 years old build on a vulcan. This bulkwark has never been conquered in the history. Its a very nice experience at Riegersburg because many shows will take place.
