Süleyman Kanuni, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, made the trip from Istanbul to Vienna for the first time in 1529, and again in 1532. Both times he did not succeed in conquering the city of Vienna. Contrary to its past the Sultans Trail nowadays forms a path of peace, a meeting place for people of all faiths and cultures. The trail starts at the Stephans Dom in the centre of Vienna. The clocks of this church are made of the remelted Ottoman canons. The path passes Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia and Bulgaria and ends at the tomb of the Sultan, behind the Süleymaniye Mosque in Istanbul.
Sultan’s Trail is a route of walking/cycling and cultural tourism which retraces the footsteps of Sultan Süleyman from Vienna through Eastern Europe and Balkan back to Turkey. Sultan’s Trail is 2.500 kilometres long and passes thru 8 countries, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Greece and Turkey. The SultansTrail is all about meeting the people on the way and getting to know more about each other.
We are thankful for the many times travellers on the SultansTrail were generously welcomed by host communities along the way.
As the path unfolds, we invite you to join us in this historic endeavour...
