The mild and sunny climate in and around St. Johann are ideal for hiking.

Where the air and water are crisp and clear and the pasture lush you will really appreciate the landscape’s scenic beauty.

Beside fantastic views from the top of the mountains you will also enjoy typical Austrian food and hospitality in one of the cosy chalets.

There is a great choice of well-maintained and signposted woodland trails, pasture land paths and steep tracks for those seeking a few days away in the fresh air and mountain scenery.

You can relax and lay back far away from it all and you will feel at ease straight away.

There are plenty of sights like Liechtensteinklamm (Liechtenstein gorge), Großglockner (High alpine road on the highest mountain of Austria), Burg Hohenwerfen (mediaeval castle) and several mines you can visit whatever the weather.

St. Johann- Alpendorf offers a lot for children as well like the Geisterberg, "Spooky Mountain" which is an adventure park for the whole family at the Gernkogel Mountain (1,767msl).

Moreover you can visit the world famous city of Salzburg which is not far away.
