Sultan’s Trail is a route of walking and cultural tourism which follows the footsteps of Sultan Süleyman, the magnificent through the Eastern Europe and Balkan to Turkey. The story of Sultan Süleyman’s journey, which has been kept alive for some five hundred years in the landscape and memory of this region, records the origin of a tradition shared by millions of people in the world today.

By retracing this journey, provides a place of meeting and connection for people of all faiths and cultures, inviting us to remember our common origins, to respect our cultural differences, and to recognize our shared heritage. The Sultan’s Trail also serves as a catalyst for sustainable tourism and economic development; a platform for the energy and idealism of young people; and a focus for positive media highlighting the rich culture and hospitable people of the Eastern Europe and Balkan.

Thanks to the generous welcome which has been extended by host communities along the way, the first walking sections of the Sultan’s Trail are now open to travelers. E.g. Austria, Slovakia, parts of Hungary, parts of Croatia and Turkey.

As the path unfolds, we invite you to join us in this historic endeavor...
