: Gear Recommendations and Safety Guidelines
Dear National Park visitor! Dear National Park visitor!
If you are out and about at Kalkalpen National Park , you should definitely take care of your equipment. You will be in alpine terrain in a north-facing dust situation - the weather can change quickly here. Please note that cell phone reception is often not available in the national park. Do not rely exclusively on digital apps.
For a relaxing outdoor experience, we recommend the following hiking gear:
- Mountain boots, hiking boots, first aid kit
- Rain protection and warm clothing
- Sufficient provisions and drinks
- Ferngals, cell phone, sun protection
- possibly a compass, GPS
- Hiking, Cycling, and Ski Touring Map No. 401: Kalkalpen National Park CARTO.at
What you should know! Abandoned forest roads in the nature zone of the national park lead into primeval forest-like areas with very old, dying trees and deadwood. Falling trees and branches are among the typical hazards here.
Use at your own risk! Pay attention and leave the forest when it is windy!
THANK YOU!
