Enjoy Austria's garden on foot

Hiking in the Eastern Styria

Hiking the alpine pastures and meadows of the Eastern Styria is good for the body and soul, but an unhurried city stroll also has its appeal. No matter where you go in the region, every hike is pure enjoyment. The cabins, inns and wine taverns invite you to stop and refresh yourself along the hiking trail.

Cross-country

The Eastern Styria is truly a hiking paradise for young and old. While skilled hikers climb the Eastern Styria’s peaks, families and casual hikers may explore the region at a slower pace – but the Eastern Styria invites exactly that: Conscious exploration, active experience and sensual enjoyment! Idyllic themed hiking trails and interesting nature trails are ideal for getting to know the region. For families in particular, they need to be part of a holiday in the Eastern Styria.

Hiking on the water

Hiking along bubbling brooks and rippling rivers is especially appealing since you have a constant, cooling companion along the road. Quickly getting your feet wet or having a long drink of spring water – our water hiking trails are great for families, especially in midsummer.
