Short Guide of Alps Wanderer travel tips and stories. Vacations ideas, cruises, spa and resorts

Self-organization is the first rule of wanderer, especially when you are going to a mountain like Alps. Even the Alps are full with luxury hotels and resorts, you still can make a unforgettable trip on a tent, with jar of jam and a little dose of adventurer spirit.

First and the most important decision is targeting a route. There are lots of sites in Internet for Weather services, climatic conditions and necessary equipment. Most generally said the summer months and early fall are the ideal for alpine climbing and hiking. The winter of course are perfect season for ski and sweet talks around the fireplace. If you want to have a chill vacation avoid the most loaded periods. It is better to get Austrian Christmas, than Austrian New Year, and even better Austrian post New Year week, when prices are falling down.

Next important step is to choose comfortable way to get there. From where you are located the possible transport ways are by plane, train, bus or by own car, so you should choose it according to what fits best to you. Remember one if you don’t want to spare your money at high prises in the mountain resorts. Fill your backpack with whatever you can carry cause you may need some small things you consider as not important sometime.

Don’t forget to put in your backpack the following items:

* Sleeping bag
* Ski Sticks for walking
* climbing-iron (tested at least one time)

* Gletcher glasses
* GPS Device if possible
