ARGE Fisch Tirschenreuth educational trip to Austria, Waldviertel and South Bohemia: Pond management – current challenges
ARGE Fish TirschenreuthARGE Fisch in Tirschenreuth, in cooperation with TEGOF and Fischerzeuger-Ring, is planning an educational trip on the topic: Current challenges in pond farming and how other regions in Europe are dealing with them. This year, we will be traveling to the Austrian Waldviertel and South Bohemia. We in the Waldviertel are particularly interested in the recognition of the pond area as "agricultural cultural heritage (GIAHS)". The program includes information on organic carp, otters, regional marketing, fish processing and the touristic use of the pond landscape. Factory tours are planned in Litschau, Waidhofen/Thaya, Haslau, Weitra and at the Schuh fish leather factory in Reitzenschlag. Visits to the Zwettl Monastery and Vyssi Brod Monastery complete the program. The tasting of regional specialties, including smoked carp caviar, the exchange of experiences with carp princess Michaela Altmann and the Waldviertler Teichrangern and other creative ideas for a sustainable carp pond economy can give us many new impulses. On the outward and return journey we will visit the Czech pond area near Budweis. The area is characterized by huge ponds with hundreds of hectares and large farms that cultivate several thousand hectares of ponds. As always, the participants will be well catered for. Travel date: Wednesday June 18 to Sunday June 22, 2025. The educational tour starts and ends in Schönficht, Tirschenreuth district. The price for the educational trip incl. including all entrance fees, meals according to the program and accommodation in a double room is expected to be around 850 euros.
