Description
Dear friends
Your hiking trip at a glance :
From Oberstdorf to Meran - who doesn't think of the famous E5 long-distance hiking trail? Right next to this popular trail, our route over the Alps offers plenty of comfort. Every evening, we return to the valley and enjoy the conveniences of selected hotels and inns, so we can continue the hike well-rested the next day. Away from the main E5 axis, magnificent hikes and pass crossings on the main ridge of the Alps await us. South of the Alps, our destination is Meran with its Mediterranean flair.
