Golden autumn for hiking

Who does not know them, the two faces of autumn: the hustle and bustle in the misty gray of the cities and the beguiling silence in the golden light of the hills and mountains. This blog is therefore meant as a guide to cheat the former and immerse yourself in the latter. Therefore, we have created a list of our most beautiful autumn hikes for you. So dive in and let yourself be carried away into an everyday life where golden colors, pleasant temperatures and crystal clear views have the upper hand.

Alpe-Adria-Trail
At no time of year is the hike from the glacier to the sea on the legendary Alpe-Adria Trail as inspiring as in the golden autumn. Like, for example, at the foot of the Großglockner in the Hohe Tauern National Park.

Luchs Trail
„Indian Summer“ in Austria’s wild center. The bewitching autumnal sea of colors of the beech forests awaits you along the Lynx Trail in the breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage landscape.

Nockberge-Trail
While autumn fog often lingers over the basins and valleys of Carinthia, bright sunshine awaits you on the Nockberge Trail. A hiking dream with quiet alpine pastures, lonely mountain lakes and mystical Swiss stone pine forests. 

Ötztaler Urweg
