Moselsteig

Located between the Rheinsteig and the Eifelsteig, the Moselsteig is a bit of the underdog when it comes to hiking in Germany. The Moselsteig Trail has not been around as long as its two 'big' brothers and not every hiker has heard of it. This makes the Moselsteig perhaps Germany's best-kept hiking secret. Follow the footsteps of the Romans, discover the most beautiful vineyards, and end your hiking days with a delicious glass of wine. The good life can be found on the banks of the Mosel River. Read our blog post, check out the route and stages, and prepare yourself for the Moselsteig. Auf geht's!The 365-kilometer Moselsteig is divided into 24 stages that can be walked in both directions. The Moselsteig follows the entire German Mosel River from Perl on the German-French-Luxembourg border to the mouth of the river at the Deutsches Eck in Koblenz. Koblenz is also the finish point of the Eifelsteig Trail the starting point of the famous Rheinsteig Trail.

Deep in the south of Germany the land rises up to what is known as the Bavarian Alps. Rugged mountains covered with evergreen forests and picture perfect mountain pastures make this part of the Alps an outdoor heaven for everybody. One of the absolute highlights of the region is impossible to witness unless you're in it: the spectacular Partnachklamm gorge. For millennia the Partnach river has carved out the mountains south of charming Garmisch Partenkirchen, creating a huge crevasse in the green foothills of the Bavarian Alps. It's a true natural gem, with impressive vertical walls and a thundering river slicing through it. The good news is that you can actually hike through the gorge. The walkway across the Partnachklamm is a great day out, or if you're keen, a perfect start for a 2-day trek that we call the Partnachklamm Explorer's Hike.

Surely everyone has heard of Germany's highest mountain the Zugspitze. At 2,962 meters (9.717 ft), this impressive peak rises far above sea level and few other peaks match the panoramic views of the Zugspitze. Weather permitting, at the top of your Zugspitze hike, you can see not only the Eibsee but also the Feldberg in the Black Forest, the Watzmann and the imposing Grossglockner; Austria's highest mountain. Quickly grab your hiking boots and find your way to Germany's highest point! Auf geht's! The Zugspitze Tour, also called the Zugspitztour by the Germans, is a unique tour with the ultimate goal of climbing and hiking the Zugspitze. The mountain range is equipped with enough cable cars to reach the top in one day, but only a hut-to-hut tour makes the experience a real triumph. In just 3 days, you can climb the Zugspitze while spending the night at cozy mountain huts and crossing the German-Austrian border at over 2,000 meters (6.561 ft) altitude. During the hut tour, enjoy the famous Partnach Gorge, waterfalls and streams in the Rein Valley and challenging steep rock sections. Will we see each other at the top?
