Good to know
To make sure that everyone can start hiking immediately, most of our route suggestions under the category “Hiking“ lead through easy terrain: wide forest and field paths, well-trodden hiking trails, well-surfaced high altitude or panoramic paths.
We want you to enjoy nature in peace and quiet, explore interesting places, visit recommended places to stop for refreshments – and simply have fun. You do not have to be a fitness fanatic to take huge enjoyment from exploring a hiking trail, some are far more demanding than others though, it is often worth researching routes and understanding your own capabilities.
No matter which route you choose: you should prepare yourself adequately for each hike. Inform yourself about the terrain and the weather conditions and then decide whether the tour is the right one for you, for your fellow hikers and for the given day.
What do you need for hiking?
The equipment you need for hiking depends on factors such as distance, region, season and weather. Most important are stable, sturdy and well broken-in footwear in which you feel fully comfortable.
You should choose your clothes so that they do not restrict your freedom of movement and protect you from sun, rain, wind and cold as needed. If there is no place to stop for refreshments on your tour, you should also pack provisions and above all carry plenty of liquids to keep yourself hydrated.
