Walking tours in Central Europe

This magnificent natural landscape has been inhabited since prehistoric times, and its salt deposits were already being exploited as early as the 2nd millennium BC. This precious natural resource formed the basis of the region’s prosperity up until the middle of the 20th century. This 8 day / 7 night exploration is rated easy to moderate. You will overcome most of the difficult altitude changes via cable car or chairlift, and savor the sweeping views from the mountain tops without the strain of climbing the mountain. The region offers a wealth of picturesque towns and spas, as well as underground stalactite caves and salt mines; you will walk along the ancient Salt Brine Trail, and enjoy boat rides on three different lakes. All this will make your week into a spectacular, well-rounded adventure.
