Watch out dog lovers: competition in the nature park started!

Villach, Österreich - An exciting new project was launched that addresses dog friends in the Dobratsch and Weissensee Nature Parks. The competition "With the Wuffi in the Nature Park" has started today and offers a creative platform in which participants can capture their best moments with their four -legged companions. The main goal behind it? Promoting responsible behavior of dog friends in the natural area, a concern that is also supported by environmental officer Sara Schaar. Your message is clear: awareness formation for the respectful handling of nature is essential.

Participation takes place digitally via social media. The dog lovers can be your videos under the hashtags #dographer and #naturparkdobratsch as well as #weissdog and #naturparkweissensee . There are great main prizes per nature park, with the video with most likes being proclaimed as the winner. The competition runs until 30. September 2025 , the winners will be announced in October 2025.

rules and behavior in the nature park

The competition participants are encouraged to consider some important behaviors when filming their experiences. This includes leash obligation, the use of a walk-sacker and compliance with the designated paths. These measures are crucial in order not to disturb nature and other park visitors. Nature park manager Robert Heuberger emphasizes the importance of this awareness campaign, which not only promotes fun and creativity, but also contributes to respecting the rules in the nature park.

Overall, the competition "With the Wuffi in the Nature Park" once again shows how important it is to deal responsibly with our environment. This also increases awareness of ecological action, a topic that is very popular today. According to a current study, about 64% of those surveyed believe that environmental and climate protection are among the greatest social challenges. A similar awareness should also apply in leisure activities, such as when visiting in nature parks.

for more environmental awareness

Environmental awareness is a central topic in Austria, and initiatives like this contribute to the promotion of sustainable practices. Young people are also increasingly recognizing the importance of environmental protection. Platforms and competitions like this offer an excellent way to combine creative ideas and conscious action. By sharing your experiences in the nature park, you can inspire others to also work for a respectful way of dealing with nature.

The action is not only an opportunity for dog friends to have fun and be creative, but also an important step towards a more sustainable coexistence in our valuable habitats. It remains exciting to see which impressive recordings will be found on social media until the end of September!
