A guidebook to trekking the Karnischer Höhenweg, or Carnic Peace Trail. The 170km hut-to-hut trail follows the World War I front line through the Carnic Alps, along the border of Austria and Italy, and is rich in historical, geological and cultural interest. It can be hiked in 1-2 weeks and is suitable for walkers with a reasonable level of fitness, a sense of adventure and a head for heights.
The guidebook covers both the Austrian variant, which is presented in 8 day stages, and the Italian variant, presented over 10 days, with stages ranging from 6 to 28km. Also included are optional detours to climb neighbouring peaks, such as Monte Coglians.
