Alps-Crossing 2017 – From Garmisch Partenkirchen to Sölden
We had to change our Asian plans for 2017 because of work. We both haven´t had enough days off from work. But we found an alternative trekking tour wich could comfort our disappointment. It was an alps crossing on the L1 trail from Garmisch Partenkirchen to Brescia. We choosed this trail becaus we knew that the well known route E5 can be packed with trekkers during the main season. This is our travelogue about this trek through the German and Austrian alps!
