The Carnic Alps are located on the border between Austria and Italy, between the Dolomites and the Julian Alps.
What I offer is a hut-to-hut 6-day hiking tour along the famous “Peace Trail” (in Italian, Sentiero della Pace). This is a 155 km hiking trail with a strong natural and historical appeal.
Also called Carnic High Route, this trail crosses an area where tough First World War battles were fought. Today it is an open-air museum, with tunnels, caves and remains of brick military roads.
On the other hand, this alpine region is beautiful and varied. The hiking trail goes around amazing lakes such as the Hundstrichsee and the Wolayersee, and allows panoramic views of imposing mountains such as Coglians, the highest peak of the Carnic Alps (2,780 m).
After a first day of briefing, we will walk for five days through the most beautiful paths of the Alps, immersed in a majestic and serene landscape. Every night warm beds and excellent food and wine will be waiting for us in the mountain huts.
So, if you want to escape from daily life routine and have this once in a lifetime experience, please contact us. We will be glad to organize this stunning hiking tour around the Carnic Alps for you!
And if you want to try a similar trip but in the Alps, you should check out this 6-day hiking tour in Gran Paradiso.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
