This week we talk with Brad Bowers, who completed the Via Alpina Yellow in 2022. The Via Alpina is a series of long distance walks that goes through the Alps. there are five trails, each a different colour (Red Trail, Purpole Trail, Yellow Trail, Green Trail and Blue Trail).
Brad talks about his experience on the Yellow Via Alpina, which goes from Trieste in Italy to Obertsdorf in Germany. Along the way the trail goes through the Julian Alps, Carnic Alps, Dolomites, Ötztal Alps, Lechtal Alps and finally the Allgäu Alps.
