Trekking | Wild Camping in the Alps

In America, we hike from designated campground to designated campground, especially inside National Parks, and mostly with a required fee permit from the National Park Service. There are no fees to enter the National Parks of the Alps and use the expansive trail systems. In the Alps, multi-day ultralight backpacking could mean carrying 5 to 8 pounds including some snacks and water with a 24 liter backpack if one is bouncing from hut to hut.
