What should I bear in mind when hiking with a child?
- Organise the hiking according to the age of the child/children and allow plenty of time for breaks .
- Clarify whether there are refreshment stops on the selected tour. If not, pack enough food and drink.
- Enquire at the tourist office about the nature of the trail and its suitability for pushchairs.
- Consider whether to bring a means of transport for your children. If they run out of energy, they can complete the rest of the hike in a carrier or pushchair.
- Depending on the difficulty of your hike, book a Tyrolean hiking guide or mountain guide. They know the routes in the region like the back of their hand and will show you the special places on your chosen hike.
- Plan special moments along the way where children can explore the forest, play in a stream, spot animals or pick flowers – these are the true highlights of any family hike.
