From Austria's fabled Danube River to the lush Lake District and Bohemian Forest of the Czech Republic, this nine-day adventure offers an ideal recipe of scenery, history and culture.

With soaring, snow-capped peaks, thundering waterfalls, glacier-carved gorges and scenic villages, Austria is the perfect playground for the adventurous at heart.

Hike the magnificent Otztal Alps European-style, carrying a light pack and sleeping in cozy alpine huts.

Journey through the storybook lands of the Czech Republic, discovering Bohemian treasures, historic gems, and villages frozen in time.

Lush meadows strewn with wildflowers, remote villages in the shadow of the Alps - this is truly the ideal walking adventure. The first stop on your journey is Schloss Linderhof, one of "mad" King Ludwig II's magical castles.
