Long-distance hiking trail. Eagle trail

The eagle has been a native animal in Tyrol for centuries and stands for freedom, strength and vastness. The route of the Eagle Trail, the main hiking trail across Tyrol, symbolizes a proud eagle spreading its "wings" over the land.

The route resembles the silhouette of an eagle soaring in the air with its wings spread wide. Alpine experience, surefootedness and a head for heights are the prerequisites for many of the stages in order to take on the challenge: 320 kilometers of hiking between the Wilder Kaiser and Arlberg, 24 daily stages ranging from easy to difficult, from gentle to jagged, from exhilarating to extremely strenuous. 23,000 vertical meters uphill, 20,000 vertical meters downhill.
