Enjoyed a fantastic trip in Austria. The waymarks on the track were very good, the accommodation was comfortable and the hosts at the accommodation were excellent and very helpful, especially Jeff from Jeff's in Goisern. Also, the luggage always arrived as planned. A wonderful trip and very scenic walk.

My sister and I used them to set up a self-guided walking tour in the Austrian Salzburg Lake District. They had multiple options and we had no issue finding one that fit our schedule and walking goals. Communication was clear and we felt well-taken care of. We would definitely use them again for our next adventure!

An inspiring traverse around Dachstein Mountain (2995m), the highest peak in the stunning Salzkammergut lakes district of Austria. Tucked southeast of Salzburg, the Dachstein Massif is a spectacular limestone range where glacial landscapes meet soaring peaks over 2500 metres. Known for its deep valleys, dramatic ridgelines and some of Austria’s largest caves, it’s a paradise for hikers seeking untamed alpine beauty. As you follow this exhilarating circuit, you’ll be rewarded with sweeping views of ancient ice fields, wildflower-filled meadows, jagged peaks and still alpine lakes. Each day offers a new perspective of the range, while your evenings bring the warmth of welcoming mountain hotels, combined with three unforgettable nights in rustic huts nestled high on the Dachstein Plateau – the perfect mix of comfort and adventure.
The Austrian Lakes area offers a glorious mix of spectacular views, forest trails, picture-perfect villages and swimming opportunities galore! The walks are relaxed, following mainly well-marked routes, with stunning lake views every day. Every stop brings new discoveries such as St Wolfgang's antique cog railway, the summit of Schafberg and Mozart's museum in St. Gilgen.
