Hiking in the
Hohe Tauern National Park

What do the Austrian states of Salzburg, Tyrol, and Carinthia have in common besides dirndls and lederhosen? The breathtaking Hohe Tauern National Park, of course!

Hiking in the Hohe Tauern National Park impresses natural scientists and nature lovers alike. Spectacular rock formations, massive glacier landscapes, expansive valleys, and crystal-clear mountain lakes captivate outdoor enthusiasts. Rare, protected alpine flowers such as gentian, edelweiss, and alpine rose also fascinate visitors. The Hohe Tauern National Park has employed rangers who, together with like-minded people, go on themed hikes, such as the popular wildlife observation hike, and share interesting facts about the flora and fauna. Marmots, ibex, golden eagles, chamois, and bearded vultures – you can spot the Big Five while hiking in the Hohe Tauern National Park, if you're lucky.
