Gesäuse Wanderführer

<p>Gesäuse - with Haller Mauern and Eisenerz Alps. 54 routes with GPS tracks<br></p><p>It is almost impossible to escape the magic of the Gesäuse: wild, untouched nature, pristine and unspoiled - steep, rocky and forbidding and at the same time gentle, lovely and green. Unpredictable and full of possibilities. "Wild water, steep rock" is a fitting motto for the Gesäuse National Park. The Rother hiking guide "Gesäuse" presents 50 varied hikes.</p><p>The Enns, which thunderously forces its way through the steep Gesäuse rocks, meanders through the core of the area that comprises the routes described in this hiking guide. This area stretches from Eisenerz with the Eisenerz Alps via Admont to Spital am Pyhrn and the Haller Mauern. Admont Abbey with its world-famous library has established itself as the cultural center of the region for centuries. The monks, with their hospitality and at the same time closed-mindedness towards too much commercialization, characterize the area, which mainly attracts alpinists and hardly any tourists.</p><p>The high rock faces, ascents of up to 1,500 meters in altitude, plenty of managed huts and the strictly protected nature are a paradise for hikers and mountaineers. The hiking guide's selection of routes ranges from easy valley and alpine hikes to easy climbs and multi-day alpine routes.</p><p>Each hike is presented with reliable directions, a hiking map with the route marked and an elevation profile. GPS tracks are available for download.</p><p>The trio of authors Carl Rauch, Anna Rauch-Kopetz and Heinrich Kopetz grew up in Styria and have known the Gesäuse mountains for decades. For this new edition, they have selected and retraced the most beautiful routes and tested the huts and means of transport. This hiking guide is a loyal and reliable companion for numerous beautiful hikes.</p> <p
