A great way to take in the beautiful landscape and enjoy different hikes is to plan a multi-day trip. A hike from the Zugspitze resort of Garmisch to Meran in Italy would take around seven days. There are traditional mountains huts along the way to stay in and this adds to the alpine experience.

Explore-Share took advantage of my inexperience. I had asked for a beginner level trip, instead, they recommended me a rather advanced trip. Neither Explore-Share nor the guide were forthcoming with information until the very last moment. The guide sold my participation to another outfit about a week before the trip. Neither Explore-Share neither the guide are trustworthy and can be relied upon in making arrangements.
