There are already 60 luxury chalets on the Turrach, now another chalet village is being added. The fact that nature conservation is often neglected in large-scale tourism projects is now causing heated debates in Styria. 

"What else are we supposed to do in our community? Raise squirrels or fish?" Wolfgang Schlick, who has been involved in local politics for over three decades and has been mayor of Stadl-Predlitz for five years, is fed up with the discussions surrounding the construction of the Turrach.
