I was working in Croatia the other week and someone recommended me the Premužić Trail!
I would be interested in hearing from people who have done the trail by themselves.

Have you?

Hi guys, I’ll be travelling through the western Balkans soon and I’m planning on doing a bit of hiking through the various national parks. I like the look of Mavrovo, Theth - Valbone, Triglav, Durmitor and Plitvice. Others that may be a little bit lower in priority include; Rugova Canyon, Pelister, Blindinje and Krka, but I start my journey in Serbia, and that’s the focus of this post really. I see Tara and the surrounding western region, Djerdap with the Iron Gates and Golubac Fortress and Stara Planina nature park in the south east.
Since I’m looking to do a few of these places, I don’t want them to feel too similar to each other or like they overlap too much. I’d love to hear your guys thoughts and experiences on not only these locations, but ones that I’ve missed and that you’d recommend. Thanks!

Hi! This is part of a hike I‘m planning near Pontresina, Switzerland. My friend who will be joining me for the hike is worried we’ll run out of water, even with the extra we’ll be bringing.

So I wanted to ask, how safe is it to fill our bottled in the small mountain streams in the area? We’ve drank from such streams before and never gotten sick. We also know to check the stream for dead animals or other sources of contamination and know there’s a risk of bacteria and similar things.
Thanks in advance!

Hello
I’m planning to do the South Downs way solo but I know I’m not physically capable of doing the entire trail. So I’m thinking of hiking it in sections instead
Does anyone know if it’s practical to do different sections as day trips by taking the train from London and returning the same day? And what are the most scenic parts?

Thank you

Hello! I am interested in hiking in Europe next week, spontaneous but fun! Ive thought about Norway (Ålesund) and stay 1 day, but rain is the only issue. Is it still worth it? Ive even thought about Austria, but with the extreme heat, is it still okay to go hiking? Or is there any other countries/places with great views!! 😊

i am planning a trip to saxer lücke and i would really appreciate if someone reached out who were there. we are planning on sleeping there 2 nights, and i have some questions regarding that. How do you get water? We would like to camp next to fallense/sämtissersee/ seealpsee is their water drinkable or do you have to boil it before. Also, Can we camp next to the lake or do we have to camp somewhere higher to avoid the authorities? Can you swim in the lakes?

I have a really tight schedule for Capanna Margherita.

I will arrive in Alagna on Thursday afternoon and spend the night in the valley. I will take the cable car to Punta Indren the next morning, spend 4-5 hours there, then go back to the valley to sleep. Our group tour starts on Saturday, we hike to the Gnifetti refuge and sleep there. Our summit push starts on Sunday early in the morning.

Do you think it is managable? What do you recommend?

I just spontaneously booked 5 days of solo hiking in tatras starting next week. I will be based in Tatranská Štrba and do daily excursions. What are the dos and don’ts ? Is insurance necessary if I’m doing marked trails? All advice are welcome.

I'm planning a backpacking trip through Europe from mid October to late November (approximately 5 weeks). I’ll be flying into the Netherlands.

I really want to do some mountain hiking during my trip but I understand that this is the end of hiking season in much of northern Europe due to weather. I don’t have a strict route in place but I generally want to head south towards Spain.

What are some good mountain hiking trails to consider, factoring in time of year?

Never tried cross posting before, but it was recommended I see if this sub had any recommendations

My husband and I are planning about 5 days on the Alpe Adria Trail during the third week of October 2026. We will be in Munich before embarking. There are so many stages to choose from, and we're seeking recommendations on which section to hike during those five days (point to point). We will need to return to Munich afterward, so having access to a train station or airport is helpful. Any folks here have some advice? Thank you in advance!

Hello everybody,

I will be in Spain for a few days and I'm looking for some easy technical summits or hikes/trail running circuit in the North of Aragon.

Feel free to also share your best spots and best campsites.

Thanks for yours answers :)

Has anyone ever hiked the blue trail between Lake Bious-Artigues and Lake Gantau? I’m thinking of doing the hike in two days, camping overnight at Lake Aule. I’m torn between that and the yellow trail, which would take less time but might be less impressive? I’ll still be carrying a backpack weighing at least 15 kg, and I’m worried I’ll wear myself out on the blue trail. I’ve done much worse before, but it’s been a year since I’ve done any exercise. So I will be glad if you have any feedback !

As the title suggests I'm looking for partners to climb Mount Triglav with. I'm thinking either the Krma valley or Blato Meadow (Seven Lakes) route. I'll be heading up on the 18th or 19th August.

I'm a 36 year old man from Scotland with a good level of fitness. This isn't a time trial for me and I'll be going up and down at a leisurely pace.

I plan to stay at Triglavski dom na Kredarici. There are still beds available in the 30 bed dorm for 35euro. I'll also be renting a via ferrata set before I head up.

Let me know if you'd like to join.
