Eight alpine countries in Europe are working together on a challenging project: their common goal is to establish official hiking trails linking all their alpine countries, from Trieste at the Adriatic Sea to Monaco on the Mediterranean, thereby opening up exciting new territory for the hiker.
The route is officially signposted as such and endowed with multilingual documentation boards. The Swiss section of the project is being managed by SAW (Swiss Hiking Federation), and the routes of the Via Alpina that cross Swiss territory are part of the red and green trails taking the walker from East to West through the Alps.

Part 1 of the green route runs from the Rhine Valley into Canton Glarus, over the Klausen Pass into Canton Uri, on to Engelberg and into the Bernese Oberland to end in the town of Meiringen. Veritably, a trail of unsurpassable beauty awaits.

This holiday can be organised as 6 days/5 nights starting at Linthal. Cost is reduced to £355pp

This holiday is part of the Trans Alps Trail from Buchs to Montreux, a total of 364 km. We can arrange to cover any part of this route. Call us for details - 0845 612 6106 (or +44 1483 271212 from outside UK).
