I have fond memories of my childhood, many of which I associate with forests, meadows, and mountains. My parents took us on hikes from an early age, which usually started very early in the morning when the dew was still wetting the leaves. Our shoes and trousers always got slightly damp because it was usually a little cool, but it was still wonderful to be out in nature.
Hiking in Austria
I fondly remember hikes in the beautiful Ătscher region â by the wild Erlauf, a cold mountain stream. It was a very hot summer afternoon when we stopped for a few hours on the banks of this river and I was able to play in the water with my sister. It was so hot that I couldn't resist diving down to the trout â I can still vividly remember my head freezing â the water was ice cold!
I spent wonderful hours in my childhood and youth in the beautiful forests and mountains of Austria, and only today do I appreciate what my parents gave me through that. I still enjoy hiking today, but I have also developed further. Mountain biking and climbing are now among my favorite hobbies, and I can say with certainty that this love of nature was passed on to me by my parents.
They made an effort to go on hikes and excursions to beautiful areas, and I can vividly remember the various maps we used back then that always reliably showed us the way. Today, anyone can find out about the perfect hiking holiday on websites like austria.info. As a newcomer, you can determine what type of hiker you are and find out about wonderful hiking areas and natural attractions.
Websites like these ensure that the always current and inexpensive hobby of hiking is gaining in popularity, and rightly so, in my opinion. Because hiking is not just a sport, but somehow also a way of life. Once you have been bitten by the wanderlust, you can't get enough of nature, fresh air, and clear water. You can "clear your head" and leave the stench and chaos of the city behind â just feel nature and yourself...
