Why Visit the Alps on a Hiking Tour?
Though the Alps are not the highest mountain range in the world or Europe, they are the cradle of alpinism and mountain tourism. Here, beneath the peaks like Mont Blanc and Grossglockner, is where it all began.
Encompassing eight alpine countries, they are one of Europe’s most tempting destinations, comprising numerous glacial and river valleys, mountain lakes, snow-capped summits, and expansive green pastures.
The hikes in the Alps are as diverse as possible, ranging from famous classic treks like Tour du Mont Blanc to lesser-known hut-to-hut hikes like the Stubai High Trail in Tyrol and comfortable hotel-based hiking holidays in renowned locations like Val Badia in the heart of the Dolomites.
Although it depends on the altitude and other factors involving different trails, the hiking season in the Alps commonly lasts from mid-June to the end of September. Exceptions, like the Triglav Panorama hike in the Julian Alps, offer an authentic alpine experience even in the off-season before the snow falls.
Accommodations in the Alps vary in comfort and amenities. Even the most particular visitors will find something for themselves among an abundant selection of mountain hotels.
However, most hikers visit the Alps for the authentic alpine hut experience. Whether in Italy, Switzerland, Austria, or Slovenia, these mountain lodges let you enter the world of local pastoral culture and cuisine.

My friend and I went with Triglav Tours for a 3 day, 2 night hike this summer and had the most amazing time!! Our guide, Bine, was awesome and had lots of cool facts to share about the area we were hiking. Additionally, my friend and I had not completed such a technical hike before and the guide and other guests were very patient with us and encouraging, ensuring we felt safe the entire time. The overnights were also such a fun way to get to know Bine, the other guests, and other hikers as well. Cannot recommend Triglav tours enough!!!


I arranged a six-day/five-night trip with Hut to Hut Slovenia. It's the first time I've gone with a tour organizer and I can say it went really well. In the past I've arranged huts myself and it is a huge hassle figuring out how to make the bookings, if the bookings actually exist, and what good/viable routes might be. Having this all sort was, at least to me, totally worth it. The routing is via Ride with GPS, which was great. I'd recommend bringing 1:25,000 scale paper maps as a backup, just in case. The huts themselves differ wildly. Some are really rustic with, ahem, interesting toilet facilities. One was accessible by road and thus had showers, a long menu, and even espresso. All will have some sort of food, but you might only have two options for dinner (one with meat, one vegetarian). The cuisine in the Slovenian huts leans strongly to stews and goulashes with minimal fresh vegetables and/or fruit. Certainly good and hearty but pretty much everyone I talked to said the food was better in the Italian and Austrian huts. Some huts are cash only, some take cards (but the card reader might be down). A 1.5 litre bottle of water is about 6 euro, so if you have a beer with dinner and also buy lunch you need to carry about 25-30 euro per day in cash (assuming you have a booking that includes breakfast). Of the six days of hiking, four were ridiculously spectacular, with the highlight being sunrise from Mt Stol. Getting up to the high mountains, though, can be crazy steep, with switchbacks only sparsely used. Descents are similarly tough, and you have to watch every step. For the first time ever I used trekking poles and my knees thank me. Two days were a bit of a slog, but this is probably unavoidable getting up to or down from the high terrain. Would I do something like this again? Yes, absolutely! But next time it will probably be the Dolomites.


We had a lovely hike today with our guide Klemen. He personalized the tour on our needs and interests, so that we saw places we wouldn't without his experience. The hike was a little bit slippery after the rain from the last days and it went a lot upwards, but it was totally worth it! Thanks again :)


Tina and her team gave me perfect support on my hut hike through the Triglav National Park in July. In particular, they had to cater to my specific needs twice, which they did for me with no problem. I once had to cancel at short notice before the start of the trip because my father was not feeling well, but then we found a solution and I was able to start the hike. Tina and team first canceled the huts immediately and then reserved them again for me. Even when my condition caused a little tour change again, I immediately had suggestions and these were immediately available in the Trip plans app. I liked this app very much because it was easy to handle and the huttohut-team gave a short overview how the daily tour will be and which highlights – mostly beautiful views – I will see“
