Difficult Hiking Trails & Stage Trails

For the professionals

The difficult hiking trails are characterised by mountain paths, some of which also wind through rocky terrain. The pioneer in the Almenland Nature Park is certainly the Bärenschützklamm. These hiking trails are usually more than 16 kilometres long and you climb more than 800 metres in altitude. Good physical condition, a head for heights and mountain experience are required here. The appropriate equipment should also be available for each hike.

There are also several day and multi-day hiking trails through the nature park. The so-called stage trails stop at one or the other peak. Particularly popular is the Styrian Mariazell Long Distance Trail or the stage trail "From Glacier to Wine", which runs right through Styria.
