When the snow in Europe`s most natural valley slowly melts, the first meadows and alpine pastures begin to bloom bright green and the birds sing and chirp again then has spring arrived in the Lesachtal Valley. Swopping winter shoes for hiking boots and discovering in pleasant temperatures the around 300 km of hiking trails – this is the motto then.
This year’s traditional Hiking Opening at the end of May is the 15th official opening of the Carinthian hiking season. Guided hiking tours, music and customs events await. Back again is also ORF presenter Mike Diwald.
