Alpe Adria Trail

The Alpe-Adria Trail is an epic long-distance hiking route connecting the foot of Austria's highest peak, the Grossglockner (3,798m), with the Adriatic port of Muggia in Italy. Spanning 43 stages, the trail traverses the Hohe Tauern National Park, the Nock Mountains, the Julian Alps, and the karst plateau of the Friuli-Venezia Giulia. It is designed as a 'discovery trail', prioritizing dramatic landscape transitions from the glaciated high Alps through the 'Emerald' Soča Valley to the Mediterranean coast. While it skirts technical climbing peaks, the total distance and cumulative elevation changes create a significant endurance demand.

The Tregennis Peninsula offers some of the wildest and oldest coastal scenery in Wales. This stunning 6-mile (9.6km) circular walk starts from the tiny, fjord-like harbor of Porth Clais, just down the road from the city of St Davids. It traces the jagged perimeter of the peninsula along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, gazing out over the ferocious tidal races of the Ramsey Sound towards Ramsey Island. The geology here is incredibly ancient (Precambrian volcanic rock), creating sharp, jagged headlands. The walk passes active sea-cliff farms, deep hidden 'geo's (inlets), the historic St Justinian's lifeboat station, and the dramatic ruins of a medieval copper mine right on the cliff edge.
