Sights:
•    The hiking route starts from Szentgotthárd towards Máriaújfalu then Lake Hársas. Lake Hársas in a wonderful environment provides an excellent occasion to interrupt the hiking tour, relax and swim in case of good weather.
•    In Apátistvánfalva we recommend to visit the late baroque style Roman Catholic Church built in 1786, the fungus exhibition and the 5 km long study path starting from the church.
•    Orfalu is one of the seven Rába-country settlements inhabited by Slovenians. Excellent example for the sparse settlement structure. We recommend visiting: folk houses in Fő street and the tóka (little pond) in the yard.
•    In Fő Street of Farkasfa there are some typical wooden harrow-walled house and in the main square the wooden belfry.
