Berliner Höhenweg — The Zillertal High-Route

The Berliner Höhenweg (also known as the Zillertaler Runde) is one of the most prestigious high-altitude treks in the Alps. This 8-day circuit traverses the heart of the Zillertal Alps Nature Park, staying consistently between 2,000 and 3,000 meters. The route is characterized by steep granite passes, ancient glacial plateaus, and overnight stays in historic, palatial huts like the Berliner Hütte—a designated monument. It is a world of sharp ridges, emerald reservoirs, and the last remaining glaciers of the Zillertal range.

The world's longest outdoor museum. The Chilkoot Trail is a 53km (33-mile) legendary route that spans from Dyea, Alaska, across the Chilkoot Pass into British Columbia, Canada. It follows the exact path of the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush, where 'stampeders' were forced by the North-West Mounted Police to carry a ton of supplies across the summit in multiple trips. Today, the trail is littered with rusted stoves, leather boots, and broken machinery left behind over a century ago. You transition from coastal rainforest to the stark alpine 'Golden Stairs' and finally into the boreal forests of the Canadian north. It is a profound intersection of history and wilderness.
