Experience nature by train - station hikes
Hiking with light luggage and a clear conscience
In der Nationalpark-Region Hohe Tauern in Kärnten verbindet das Projekt „Bahnhofswandern“ entspannte Anreise mit eindrucksvollen Naturmomenten. Im Oberen Drautal starten verschiedene Wanderwege direkt an den Bahnstationen – ideal für alle, die nachhaltig reisen und trotzdem nicht auf authentische Bergerlebnisse verzichten wollen.
Hiking begins on the platform
Kein Parkplatzstress, kein Stau – stattdessen: Zugticket lösen, ankommen, losgehen. Im Oberen Drautal wurde das Projekt „Bahnhofswandern“ im Jahr 2025 erstmals umgesetzt. Die Idee: Wanderrouten, die direkt von Bahnhöfen wie Oberdrauburg, Dellach oder Greifenburg starten und wieder dort enden – perfekt für Tagesausflüge oder Wochenendabenteuer. Ob entlang des Drauradwegs, zu aussichtsreichen Höhenwegen oder gemütlich durchs Tal: Die Region bietet Touren für Genießer und Aktive gleichermaßen.
Gentle mobility through the national park region
The Hohe Tauern National Park region in Carinthia has always been a pioneer when it comes to sustainable tourism concepts. Station hiking takes this idea a step further: access to nature has never been easier - and without the need for a car. Those who travel by train save CO₂, travel stress-free and can concentrate fully on experiencing nature.
Tour variety for every fitness level
Train station hiking in the Hohe Tauern National Park region in Carinthia offers the right nature experience for everyone - without the need for a car. The tours have been selected so that they are easily accessible by train and cover different needs. All tours start and end directly at a train station - this makes planning particularly easy and opens up new perspectives on a region that you might otherwise only have explored by car.
Short hikes are aimed at connoisseurs, families or anyone who wants to take it easy. These tours take around one to two hours and lead through natural, flat landscapes - for example along rivers, through alluvial forests or to themed trails such as the "Path of the Senses" in Dellach.
Day tours offer a little more exercise, but are usually on well-maintained paths with a moderate elevation profile. Ideal for anyone who wants to spend a whole day in nature without having to cover too many meters in altitude. Tours along the Drau hiking trail or through the idyllic river landscape around Greifenburg are particularly popular.
Summit and alpine hikes appeal to ambitious hikers who are not afraid of altitude. From train stations such as Oberdrauburg, more challenging routes lead to alpine pastures and panoramic heights such as the Jaukenhöhe - with impressive panoramic views of the Drau Valley and the surrounding mountains.
