A guidebook to 30 walks in Austria’s Salzkammergut, a region of lakes and mountains near Salzburg. With the majority of routes graded easy to moderate, there are plenty of options to suit less experienced walkers and families, and most can be accessed by public transport.
Walks range from 5 to 20km (3–12 miles) and can be enjoyed in 2–9 hours. They are divided between four geographical areas, including the ever-popular Dachstein.
- Clear route description illustrated with 1:50, 000 mapping
- GPX files available for download
- Refreshment and public transport information for each walk
- Accommodation options, public transport and sites of interest for each of the geographical sections, plus notes on the ‘gateway’ cities of Salzburg and Linz
- History, geology, plants and wildlife
