LONG-DISTANCE HIKING
Making a pilgrimage from hut to hut, spending several days in nature, discovering new facets every day, enjoying the peace and quiet and finding yourself in the process - this is the fascination of long-distance hiking that many mountain enthusiasts dream of. Have you ever undertaken a long-distance hiking tour?
Good preparation is half the battle or, in this case, half the hike...
However, this unforgettable mountain experience requires good preparation. To make your planning easier, we have put together 4 packages that include overnight stays in mountain huts, packed lunches and cable car rides:
Package 1: Mountain taster
- 1-2 nights in a hut | 3 nights in the valley incl. breakfast
- either at the Hans-Wödl-Hütte or the Preintalerhütte
- 1 packed lunch per night
- and much more...
Have you always wanted to get a taste of the mountain air? As the name suggests, this hiking package is suitable for all those who have always dreamed of waking up in the middle of the mountains and enjoying the first rays of sunshine with a real mountaineer's breakfast. Depending on your preference, you can spend 1-2 nights at either the Hans-Wödl-Hütte or the Preintalerhütte with this package. For each overnight stay at the hut, a snack package is included so that you can set off on your hiking tour refreshed. Starting from the Preintalerhütte, you can reach the impressive Sonntagskarseen lakes in around an hour's walk. And 3 picturesque lakes await you around the Hans-Wödl-Hütte.
Package 2: Dachstein-Sun-Round
- 2 overnight stays in a hut (Südwandhütte & Guttenberghaus)
- 1 ascent with the Dachstein cable car
- and much more...
On this 3-day hike on the Dachstein, you will become a border crosser in the truest sense of the word. Starting in Filzmoos in the province of Salzburg, the route takes you through the impressive "gateway" into Styria to the Südwandhütte, where you spend the first night. Strengthened with a breakfast, the next day you take the panoramic gondola up to the Dachstein glacier and continue on foot through rugged scree landscape to the Guttenberghaus, one of the highest mountain huts in Styria and the end point for the second and final overnight stay. Past the deep green Silberkarsee lake and through the gorge, you descend to Ramsau am Dachstein the next day.
Package 3: Obertal mountain enjoyment
- 3 overnight stays in a hut
- 2 lunch packages
- and much more...
Four days to enjoy the mountain world with many impressive lakes... On the first day, you follow the historic miners' trail towards the Giglachsee lakes, where the first overnight stay in a hut awaits you at the Ignaz-Mattis-Hütte or the Giglachseehütte. On the second day, you continue past the two lakes to the next, the Duisitzkarsee, a true natural gem. The next two overnight accommodation options here are the Fahrlechhütte and the Duisitzkarhütte, before the third and final stage follows with a hike to the Keinprechthütte.
Package 4: Schladminger Tauern High Trail
- 4 nights in a hut
- daily packed lunch

Numerous unforgettable summit experiences on 5 stages... On this tour from the Hochwurzen to Lake Constance in Styria, a breathtaking mountain landscape awaits you, such as the 30 or so mountain lakes on the Klafferkessel plateau. However, this tour also requires stamina, surefootedness and a head for heights. The first stage takes you from the Hochwurzen via the Guschen and Brettersee to the Giglachseen lakes, before setting off the next day via the Rotmandlspitze to the Keinprechthütte. The third stage takes you to the Gollinghütte, where, after another overnight stay, you cross the highest point of the high trail, the Greifenberg, and the aforementioned Klafferkessel to the Preintalerhütte. From there, the last stage takes you to the Styrian Bodensee.
