Echern Valley is a unique natural jewel away from the tourist bustle of Hallstatt. This narrow valley lies between the mighty Hirlatz Mountain and the steep Echern Wall offering enchanting hiking trails through dense forests and stunning mountain scenery. It houses traditional old alpine houses and impressive natural wonders including the Glacier Garden and Waldbachstrub Waterfalls. The area is ideal for families with relatively flat paths and informative display boards. A leisurely tour through the front part of the valley takes about 90 minutes. Perfect for escaping the crowds
