On these half-day guided tours of the Ofen Pass and Lavin, you will learn fascinating facts about the history, armament and operation of the fortifications at Ova Spin and Lavin. The two barrier posts at Ova Spin and Lavin are still active barriers of national importance. They have recently been opened to the public.
