Long-distance hiking through impressive mountain scenery
Gastein Trail - your adventure in the Alps
In 7 stages across gentle meadows, to farmed alpine pastures and up imposing peaks.
Through three places that are as diverse as the landscape that surrounds them: Here, hikers experience the kind of relaxation that can only be found in the great outdoors. On the Gastein Trail, this experience can be felt like nowhere else.
Anyone approaching the Hohe Tauern from Dorfgastein , along the western side of the valley, will experience what was once reserved for pioneers and explorers: hidden basin landscapes that provide magnificent scenic experiences. And steep grassy slopes that combine high alpine terrain with charming promenades.
In 7 daily stages, the Gastein Trail leads from Dorfgastein high above Bad Gastein back to Bad Hofgastein: 87 kilometers and 4,587 vertical meters to cover. Hikers who complete this route are greeted by a backdrop that once attracted emperors and princes and enjoy a unique mountain world with spectacular peaks, rustic huts and idyllic mountain lakes along the way.
