Your hiking adventures start right outside the door of the Hideaway, with leisurely alpine walks as well as demanding summit tours to choose from.

Your hiking holiday becomes especially memorable during the Salzburger Almsommer, when rustic huts invite you to stop for hearty snacks, local specialities are served and traditional mountain festivals bring the region to life. You can learn more about this unique experience in our Salzburger Almsommer blog post.

From mid-August to the end of October, the Bauernherbst harvest festival lets you experience living tradition up close: festive parades, traditional handicraft demonstrations, guided themed hikes, regional cooking courses and the ceremonial “Almabtrieb”, where colourfully decorated cattle return from the mountain pastures to the valley, make this season truly special.

The Lammertaler Primeval Forest is one of the region’s most impressive natural gems. Home to trees up to 300 years old, it offers a rare glimpse into untouched wilderness. Walking through this ancient forest, you’ll feel its calm atmosphere and discover a peaceful escape from everyday life.
