Hi Parth,
Take a look at best places to stay in Austria.

You could stay around Filzmoos and explore Ramsau am Dachstein and Schladming as well.

All the best,
Sabrina

It is helping me plan a late June trip. I am interested in day hikes, and was wondering if there was a specific town you recommended to book a stay in that is close to enough day hiking and sightseeing to keep me busy for about 4 days. I’d have a car and would be okay with a up to few hours of driving per day if need be to fill those 4 days. One thought I had was somewhere south of Salzburg, where I would be flying into.

Hi Kipp,
May is in between seasons. We’ve only hiked in the Vienna Mountains in May. I would reach out to a few tourist offices in Salzburg, Styria, and Upper Austria, for their recommendations.
All the best,
Sabrina

Where would be a good base location to do day hikes from in early May?

Hi Katka,
Thank you! I’d prioritize Frieserberghaus – Olpererhütte.
You can also check out the Speicher Zillergründl to Plauener Hütte and Hohenau Alm hike, we described in our Mayrhofen Summer guide.
All the best,
Sabrina

thank you for this lovely and inspiring blog! I really enjoy going through your posts.

Me and my boyfriend are going to spend prolonged weekend in Mayrhofen by the end of July/beginning of August and we would really appreciate 2 or 3 one-day hike recommendations. We will have a car and we are both experienced hikers (we mainly hike in Slovenian mountains), so we are looking for a few demanding hikes. However, if there are some easy beautiful hikes I will be more than happy to hear about them too. So far, I’m the most excited about Olpererhütte and Friesenberghaus.

Thank you in advance,
All the best,

Katka

Hi Morgan,
How about doing a 2-day hike closer to Vienna in the Hochschwab Mountains. I would head to Alpengasthof Bodenbauer, park there, and hike to the Schiestlhaus Mountain Hut, where you can spend the night. Complete the circuit the next day. Follow this Hochschwab guide.

Note: wild camping or any camping outside of official campgrounds is not permitted in Austria.

All the best,
Sabrina

I have a specific request for a recommendation. I live in Vienna, and I’m looking for the best/most beautiful hike that I can complete in a 24 hour period. I guess this would be a day trip, but I’d also consider driving out the day prior, camping or staying in a mountain house, so we can get an early start the day of the hike, with enough time to drive back home. Any tips?

Thank you in advance!
