      What a real hiking fan had to say<\/h2>
      National Park Hohe Tauern - vacationer<\/div>

      \u201cIn the tracks of the water \u2013 that is how I like to describe the loveliest hikes in the Hohe Tauern National Park. Way up on the Pasterze there is eternal ice, water in its most tranquil guise. While glacier trekking I get very close to water. As a waterfall, the water falls into the valley, wonderful hikes proceed through ravines and canyons. As the M\u00f6ll and the Drau continues to forge its path, while at its banks there are wonderful hiking trails and paths…\u201d!<\/em><\/p><\/div>
