The over 550 km long "Dream Trail" is one of the most famous long-distance hiking trails in the Alpine region. It connects two European cultural metropolises - Munich and Venice.

In a total of 30 daily stages, we hike from Marienplatz in Munich always southwards, through the Karwendel, across the Central Alps and the Dolomites to the Adriatic Sea. The route of the long-distance hiking trail was first published in 1977 by the German mountaineer Ludwig Graßler.
