Austria is one of Europe’s most walker-friendly countries, with 40,000km of trails leading through a spectacular variety of mountain scenery. Walking in Austria covers 10 different regions, from the Rätikon Alps in the west, to the little-known Karawanken on the border with Slovenia; from limestone pinnacles to grass-covered hills and 3000m summits draped in snow and ice. Day walks and multi-day hut-to-hut tours are described, along with full details of no less than 135 mountain huts.
With excellent public transport, attractive villages and flower-hung chalets, Austria makes an ideal destination for a first-time visit to the Alps, as well as rewarding experienced mountain walkers with its wonderland of opportunities. Walking in Austria will help you fulfil some of them.
