Deceleration "to go"

The peaks within reach: at the hiking hotel in Carinthia, Bad Kleinkirchheim

There are endless opportunities to hike the UNESCO Biosphere Park Nockberge starting from the Eschenhof hiking hotel in Carinthia - not only for strenuous hikes, but also new paths to discover. If you don't like to lace up your hiking boots alone, you can join host Gerhard Ortner and discover the most beautiful areas with him. Your car also gets a break during your hiking holiday in Carinthia. With the Sonnenschein Card, you can hop on the Nockmobil (at a special price) or let the hotel shuttle take you to every corner of the community for a flat rate of € 10.00.

The Panocloud - the innovative webcam of Bergbahnen Bad Kleinkirchheim can capture the entire area from the Kaiserburg to Brunnach and provides you with interesting images.

Robert und Susanne – HolidayCheck

"Very friendly staff. Hike with boss was wonderful. Fondue on the mountain and then hike to the sunset. Outstanding food. Everything was fresh and products from the surrounding area. Wellness area is top."

Alexander und Sonja – HolidayCheck

"Goes without saying that the place is a paradise for hikers. Within 5 minutes from the hotel, you will find the first hiking trails. Thanks to the Kärnten Card, you can use the cable cars for free in summer/autumn. The Eschenhof also offers regular guided hikes and excursions in the surrounding area, for example a traditional "Senner" dairyman's breakfast at an organic alpine pasture, tours with rangers in the Nockberg mountains, etc..."
