Hiking in Sölktäler Nature Park - mountains make you feel truly alive

Sölktäler Nature Park, whose virgin landscapes include 277 km² of the most beautiful summits in the Niedere Tauern range, encompasses two different valleys: the Grosses and the Kleines Sölktal.

The Grosses Sölktal, with its wonderful scenic road, Sölk Pass, was actually the most important trade route over the Tauern divide back in Roman times. Kleines Sölktal is an ideal starting point for leisurely hikes to alpine villages and to the jewels of the Alps, our silent, mysterious mountain tarns.

The sound of boundless rushing waters provides the accompaniment along many of our hikes, and that includes through our forests, across alpine pastures and up to the high peaks.

The heart and soul of the Nature Park are the countless huts and hill farms where, in summer, traditional farm work and folk customs leave their stamp on daily life. Cows, sheep and people are all enjoying essentially a "summer getaway" up in the mountains of the Sölktäler - much to the joy of hikers and visitors alike, especially those who appreciate fresh milk, homemade bread & butter, as well as delectable Styrian cheese.

Hiking, experiencing nature, but also understanding, taking your time, stopping in at mountain huts, listening to the water's melodies, discovering flowers, and enjoying the diversity of our forest and mountain scenery.
