Schloss Halbturn is less than 10 minutes away by car and is a great place to stroll or play hide-and-seek in the ornamental garden in front of the palace. There are many events like GartenLust or exhibits in the castle's museum. Christmas market events are child-friendly and have many local and regional exhibitors.

Only five minutes by car from Streckhof Frauenkirchen, we highly recommend and excursion to St. Martin's. Advance reservations are recommended, as is reserving a lounge bed ('Muschel'). We pack snacks to bring with us, as our kids aren't fans of the restaurant. Bring water shoes, a water bottle, a cover up (required for the restaurant), and more towels than you think you'll need.

Wonderful lake swimming area with a restaurant (Windsbraut), playground for all ages, clean toilets, and a sandy zero-entry into the lake. In summer you pay to enter via parking ticket, which you need to keep up with to exit. I advise wearing water shoes, as the lake is mucky and rocky.

Sightseeing

Book a “Duftsafari” or visit the Duftatelier during opening hours on Saturday from 15:00-18:00/3-6 PM. I swear my kids sleep better because of the lavender spray I buy there!

Mexican food-inspired food truck at the lake entrance in Neuseidl. Run by parents of two young children, they won't balk at orders like, 'just sour cream and beans.' Closes early-ish.
