There are plenty of mountain peaks that invite you to go hiking. You don’t have to be a professionell climber to visit the mountains. There are lots of tracks and farm roads you can walk on for as long as you like, and almost every track leads to one of the valleys. You can quench your thirst with crystal clear water from a mountain stream, experience the silence and the relaxing wilderness. The mountains are full of new impressions and it really is a diversion to everyday life. If you don’t want to take a walk, you can travel by car. Either way you will experience the nature’s special and wonderful charm.
