Berliner Höhenweg

Are you ready for a wild hiking adventure? Then the Berliner Höhenweg should definitely be on your list. The challenging route leads through the high alpine terrain of the Zillertal Alps. With two tough mountain passes and the ascent of the 3,134 meter high Schönbichler Horn you'll tackle lots of vertical gain. The efforts are not in vain! With good weather, you'll have stunning views of the peaks and glaciers of the rugged massif. The Berliner Höhenweg, also known as the Zillertaler Runde and in English as the Berlin High Trail, is a hiking route for experienced mountain hikers. The terrain can be technically challenging in some sections with steep trails, snow fields, and rocky terrain. It is possible to do a shortened version of this hike. During each stage, you pass an escape route, so you can exit the route prematurely if needed. In this blog post, we'll delve deeper into what to expect during this trek and how we can help you along the way.

Whether you want to go mountain biking, climb a via ferrata, or do a multi-day mountain hike, the Wilder Kaiser Mountains have it all. With as many as 400 km (248,5 miles) of hiking trails, the 65 km-long (40,4 miles) Kaiserkrone circles this mountain range. Also known as one of the most beautiful multi-day hikes in Tyrol, this tour introduces you to long distances in the mountains. If you are in good shape and feel like being on the trail all day, read on. The popular mountain range, by locals referred to as "Koasa", towers over the region as a true emperor. That you can go there for any mountain sport was already clear but because the mountain massif is only a few kilometers/miles below the German-Austrian border, it is also very easy to reach. The Kaiserkrone is by far the best known and most popular hike, or in other words, THE hut-to-hut hike through the Wilder Kaiser. You will sleep in mountain huts, as well as mountain hotels and guesthouses during this trek. So, combined with the distances and altimeters, the Kaiserkrone is an experience not to be missed.

Have you completed your first hut-to-hut hike and are you ready for your next mountain adventure? Then the Venediger Höhenweg, or the Venediger High Trail, is your next step! The diverse mountain landscape leads you around the fourth-highest peak in Austria, the impressive Grossvenediger. With a multitude of ascents and descents, including the Türmljoch, the Venediger Höhenweg offers more challenges than the southerly located Lasörling Höhenweg. Take your next step as a mountain adventurer. Are you up for the challenge? In the case of the tough bigger sister of the Lasörling Höhenweg, the 3,666-meter (12.027 feet) high peak Grossvenediger takes center stage. Also known as the "Ehrwürdige Majestät," which translates to "Honorable Majesty" in English, this is a mighty peak entirely made of ice. Keep in mind that you won't be climbing Grossvenediger; you'll be walking around it. In this blog post, we'll take you along the Venediger Höhenweg and show you what to expect from this moderately challenging hike. Is it something for you?
