Are you looking to complete the famous Peter Habeler Runde? Also known as the Peter Habeler Trek, this trek is a circular route that starts and ends in Vals, a mountain village with 537 inhabitants in Tyrol. Dedicated to Austrian mountaineer Peter Habeler on his 70th birthday, this trek is one of the most renowned hikes in the region. Peter Habeler was born in Mayrhofen, Tyrol, and made Alpine history when he and Reinhold Messner climbed Mount Everest without wearing artificial oxygen in 1978.

The trek is 56.1 kilometers long, has a total ascent and descent of 4,230 meters. The original trek is a 7-day hike. On the accelerated version, you cover the Peter Habeler in 5 days. Hotel accommodation before and after the hike in Vals is included. Are you ready?
