This downloadable PDF gives you a simple, family-tested way to walk the Grossarl Family Hut Hike in Austria over two manageable days, with one night at a wonderfully child-friendly mountain inn.

Covering just under 10 km in total, the route passes four traditional Alms, with playgrounds, animals, good food and plenty of reasons for small legs to keep going.

Forget piecing together German hut websites, bus timetables and hiking maps, or wondering how an overnight hike will actually work with younger kids.
