Alpe Adria Trail
The Alpe Adria Trail is the new star in the European long distance hiking heavens! Directly from the Grossglockner, the route starts, charged with the energy from the high mountain area of rocks and ice, through a landscape suffused with light across Carinthia, the Italian Friuli region and Slovenia, and finally finds its destination, the fishing village of Muggia at the Adriatic coast.
National Park Winter Programme
Explore the Winter Wonderland on snowshoes. Best would be in the company of our fully-trained National Park Rangers! They are the experts in the Hohe Tauern National Park. All of them are impeccably trained, with established roots in the Hohe Tauern valleys. They know every nook and cranny of the National Park, no matter how well hidden. So a snowshoe walking-tour together with National Park Rangers will be an unforgettable trip of exploration!
Alpine horse-riding – on the trail of the “sumpters”
For centuries adventurous tradesmen known as "sumpters" transported wine, salt and gold to far away towns and ports on the backs of their packhorses. Immerse yourself in those long lost golden times and explore the old trade routes of the National Park on horseback.
TauernAlpine: the best ever National Park holiday!
The National Park is a hidden treasure. And this treasure is there to be discovered:
whether by ski touring, snowshoe walking, ice pick and crampon climbing, cross-country skiing or riding on the back of a steaming Haflinger horse. If you want to experience a very special alpine holiday then you are right on course with us, the TauernAlpine National Park Partners!
Winter Walking-Tours
What could be nicer than exploring the idyllic, snow-covered winter landscape of the Hohe Tauern National Park on a winter walking-tour? Whether you prefer snowshoes, or not: you will surely never get bored on our richly varied hiking routes.
Waterfalls and gorges walking tours
For millions of years the elemental force of water has moulded and shaped the mountainous landscape of the Hohe Tauern! In the process it has left behind for us masterpieces of the Creation: waterfalls plummeting down into the valleys over sky-high rock faces and through deep and mysterious gorges.
Trekking in the Hohe Tauern National Park
Trekking – from one place to another. In rhythm with nature and looking it in the eye. This is the magic to which more and more people are yielding. In Nepal, in New Zealand, or on the road to Santiago. And in the Hohe Tauern too! From refuge hut to refuge hut, past mountain lakes and tarns, waterfalls and glaciers, and up to high passes. Time and again in the valleys and mountains new miniature worlds will reveal themselves before your very eyes.
The most beautiful National Park trails
The Hohe Tauern National Park is the largest protected area in the Alps. It’s an island of ecological diversity in the heart of Europe – and one of the most spectacular landscapes on Earth! Our concern is to bring you closer to this natural world of wonders, whilst filling your holiday with unforgettable first-hand experiences.
Seven Summits in the Hohe Tauern National Park
“Seven Summits”? This phrase makes tacit reference to the highest summits of the seven continents. Don’t worry though; we don’t intend to climb Mount Everest! But we have selected seven terrific target summits for you, all in the Hohe Tauern National Park. We cordially invite you to an unforgettable expedition across the entire National Park!
