Lake Walking in the Salzkammergut - Austria/Salzkammergut - 8 days/7 nights


"There is no more beautiful country in our time…" an old popular folk song says. Well, no other landscape may take this folk song as literally as the Austrian Salzkammergut. It certainly belongs to one of the special treasures of this world. The uniqueness also was recognized by the UNESCO and the region Hallstatt was awarded the predicate of natural and cultural heritage. Some special gems only can be reached on foot – a treat on this walking tour.


Tour profile: Easy to medium tours with 3 to 6 hours of walking
