Visitors can stroll through the picturesque streets and experience traditional Tyrolean charm. Rietz is nicknamed "Kirchendorf" (Church Village) for its beautiful churches. The pilgrimage church of St Anthony is particularly popular for weddings.
The inhabitants of Rietz place great value on local traditions and they demonstrate this in an impressive way every three years when the carnival celebrations take centre stage.
Rietz is also well-worth a visit for gourmets. The village is located directly on the Cycle & Savour cycle route, which is lined with local producers and excellent schnapps distillers.
