The large city park and "green lung" of the city of Ried was gradually created after the Second World War in the floodplain of the Breitsach.

Thanks to constant improvements to the paths and planting, this is now a particularly valuable recreational area for the people of Ried. In addition to many places to linger (benches, cosy spots on the banks), 2 artificial ponds and one of the most beautiful playgrounds in Austria are worthwhile excursion destinations for walkers and cyclists.
Thanks to its central location, the city park is easily accessible from all sides and invites young and old to get active in the fresh air. In addition to long walks, there is also a fitness trail to motivate you to spend time in this green lung of the city. For visitors interested in botany, the signposting of the trees created by the Beautification Association also offers an insight into the extraordinary variety of trees in the new city park.
