Top Trekking Hiking in Austria

If you're planning to eat along the way, bring snacks from home. Food at the mountain huts can be pricey and not always the best. I regretted not packing my own lunch.

my advice is to bring a power bank. you’ll want to take tons of photos and your phone battery runs down fast in the remote areas.

Pack a lightweight rain jacket. The weather can change quickly in the mountains, and I got caught in an unexpected downpour. It’s better to be prepared!

If you're unsure about a trail, I recommend checking the local tourist info center in Schruns. They’ve got super helpful maps and can give tips on the best routes depending on your skill level.

Consider staying in the huts rather than hotels for a more authentic experience. I loved the cozy atmosphere and met some amazing fellow hikers. Plus, it saved me money on accommodation!

I recommend bringing cash for small huts along the trail; some only accept cash and you don't want to miss out on a cold drink after a long hike! I learned that the hard way.
