Climb every mountain...

It is not too late to sign up for a hike across the Alps with us in early August. We are going to do a 10 day hike that starts in Munich, Germany and goes across Austria and into Italy. We are using an adventure travel company called Mountain Travel Sobek (MTS). We have traveled with them extensively. We used them last year to hike to Peru’s Machu Picchu and the year before for England’s Coast to Coast hike. We have also done other hikes in the Alps with them. They are a great company. See the details on their website:

“Ten days, six valleys, three countries! Join us for an exhilarating ramble across the Alps along parts of the E5, one of Europe's most famous and challenging long-distance trails—and one of its most spectacular! Alpine meadows awash with flowers, rugged peaks, and glaciers galore fill the vistas as you hike across the Alps from Germany's picturesque Bavaria through the glaciated mountains of Austrian Tyrol and ending in the medieval city of Meran (Merano) in northern Italy. Accommodations for the traditional E5 are in dorm-style mountain huts, but we've modified the classic itinerary slightly so you can rest comfortably at night in charming chalet-style guesthouses or hotels tucked away in verdant valleys (including a four-star hotel with spa, sauna, and swimming pool!). And vehicle support means you'll only need to carry a daypack during the day. Wunderbar!”

Highlights:

10 days (begins and ends in Munich).
9 nights hotels or guesthouses.
7 days moderate to strenuous hiking (max. elev. 9,824').
