This varied and spectacular crossing of the Alps on foot has become a classic. The hiking trail is a stage of the “E5” long-distance hiking route. It runs through the heart of Europe from Germany via Austria to Italy. The attraction of this tour lies in the change and contrast of the many landscapes and vegetation zones that we hike through in a week from north to south. Colorful flower meadows and grassy mountains in the Allgäu Alps, fascinating panoramic views of the striking rocky peaks in the Lechtal in Austria, the endless glaciers and mountain giants in the Ötztal and finally the sunny finale in South Tyrol.

For many hikers, crossing the Alps is a lifelong dream. The classic crossing of the Alps on the E5 long-distance hiking trail from Oberstdorf to Merano creates the best conditions for this in just 6 days. Nevertheless, a good level of fitness, a head for heights and surefootedness are required. From gentle alpine pastures to rugged peaks, the E5 offers what feels like an hourly change in its vegetation. You reach the highest point of the E5 long-distance hiking trail at the Similaun hut. This refuge is located at 3019m. Enjoy different cultures and varied panoramas that will make your hiking heart beat faster. To make your hike on the long-distance hiking trail even better, there is the option of exclusive luggage transport from hotel to hotel. This means you don’t have to worry about your luggage and can hike along the long-distance hiking trail in complete relaxation.
The E5 long-distance hiking trail is certainly one of the most challenging hut-to-hut trekking tours across the Alps in Europe. The daily hiking times are between 3 and 8 hours. A good level of fitness is therefore essential. As you will be moving a lot in alpine terrain on the tour, experience in the mountains and the use of maps and route descriptions are highly recommended. You will also hike on good forest and hiking trails, but sometimes also along narrow mountain paths. Surefootedness and a head for heights are required.
The E5 hiking trail is one of the most popular hiking trails in the Alps. Some of the most famous huts in the Alps are located along the 6 stages of the E5 long-distance hiking trail.
Some of the packages we offer for the E5 long-distance hiking trail include overnight stays in huts along the route and also in selected hotels, e.g. for an extension in South Tyrol — details can be found in the respective tour description.
We will provide you with detailed maps including GPS data and tour information.
