Mountain experience in summer
My exciting hiking holiday in Carinthia is already awaiting me!
Breathing in the cool freshness of the misty morning air gives me a boost for the whole day. The mountain is mine alone, on foot or by bike.
Sometimes I also like to follow an expert local guide to the very best hiking in Carinthia. The Nockberge biosphere reserve is so enormous that I could hike endlessly. I am looking forward to a true Carinthian hiking holiday at my hiking hotel in Bad Kleinkirchheim in Carinthia.
Apart from a network of waymarked biking routes in the surrounding mountains, the local mountain is a little biking paradise. I can bike all around the mountain on trails at all altitudes, separate from hikers. So Eschenhof is also my biking hotel in Bad Kleinkirchheim in Carinthia.
