Hiking in spring

The most beautiful hikes through the countryside, when nature awakens and the apple blossom enchants the landscape

The spring months between mid-March and mid-June are an inviting time for wildflower hikes and the first treks of the season - the crocus blossom can also be experienced during this period.

The sunrays are already warm. Hikes at lower altitudes are now wonderful because the landscape is enchanted by the fruit tree blossom and the temperatures, even in the afternoon, are not yet high enough to work up a sweat or require a search for shade.
