Individual hut tour Rätikon
Individual hut tour Rätikon
Situated at the crossroads of three countries, Rätikon enchants with its dramatic rock formations and picturesque mountain lakes. Here, adventurers can push their limits on beautiful hiking trails and be inspired by the untouched beauty of nature. The area is known for its dramatic rock formations, picturesque mountain lakes and beautiful alpine meadows.
The Rätikon is Nicky's favorite area to guide because there are so many possibilities. From the beautiful Lünersee to the accessible mountain peak the Sulzfluh and the Carschina hut with its beautiful sunset.
The Rätikon Mini can even be booked completely without fear of heights. Which is in contrast to the Peaks of Rätikon tour where many challenging paths lead to mountain peaks.
The Rätikon is also very easy to reach from the Netherlands. You can reach Bludenz in an 8-hour drive. And from there it is another half hour to an hour by bus or car to the starting point of the tour.
Have you never been to the mountains? Then I recommend that you take part in my beginners tour in this beautiful area. On my beginners tour you will learn much more than just what you can find online, because I can guide you personally and see exactly what you need. You can find the tour here.
