Kate brings a strong background in the airline industry and a deep love of European travel to her role at UTracks. Over the years she has travelled extensively throughout Europe and even spent several years living in Austria, giving her a firsthand understanding of the region’s landscapes, culture and outdoor lifestyle.
During her time in Austria she made the most of the country’s spectacular alpine scenery, spending both winter and summer exploring the outdoors. Whether hiking through the Alps or cycling along the famous Danube Cycle Path, Kate developed a real appreciation for the rewarding pace of active travel.
With her experience living and travelling in Europe, Kate has an excellent understanding of what makes walking and cycling holidays so special. Her knowledge of destinations, trails and regional highlights helps travellers of all experience levels – from seasoned hikers to first-time cyclists – feel confident choosing the right journey.
Kate especially enjoys sharing her insights into Austria and the Alpine region, where spectacular mountain scenery, welcoming villages and excellent food make every journey memorable.
She’s already looking forward to her next return visit to Austria – ideally involving a great schnitzel, a scenic trail through the Alps and perhaps a celebratory schnapps at the end of the day.
