Five are the main international trails that, stretching over more than 5.000 km divided into 340 stages, connect eight Alpine European countries, from Trieste in Italy to the Principality of Monaco, all across the Alps. A fascinating project based on the exploitation of already existing trails, of easy access to anybody and not only for experienced climbers, aimed at discovering the alpine landscapes and at grasping the heart of the environment, history and culture of the common alpine identity.
