The majestic Alps, a symbol of unspoiled beauty and untamed challenges, open a unique door for adventurers to explore their own limits and experience breathtaking nature. The Alpine crossing, an outdoor adventure par excellence, promises not only physical exertion but also unforgettable moments of self-discovery.
One of the preferred routes starts in Gmund on Lake Tegernsee and leads via the Austrian Achensee and the Zillertal valley to Sterzing, the northernmost city in Italy. The route, which is between 95 and 110 kilometers long, can be completed in seven stages. Specialized travel providers are happy to take care of luggage transfer and booking accommodation for hikers. The maximum altitude difference per day is 900 meters. The well-marked route, indicated by yellow signs with a "Ü" for crossing, points the way to Sterzing. The ideal travel time extends from June to the end of September, but caution is advised: "The tour is anything but a walk." Good physical condition and surefootedness are required.
The Alpine crossing is much more than a sporting event; it is an expedition through diverse cultures, regions, and landscapes. As you struggle through rugged mountain passes and traverse green valleys, not only physical but also emotional boundaries are overcome. The silence of the peaks, the wildness of nature, and the impressive scenery open up moments of reflection and inner peace. The journey through the Alps thus becomes not only a physical challenge but also a journey into one's own soul.
