“Don’t wait — come join us
IVV-Olympiad 2027 Luxembourg…
From the Alps to the Heart of Europe .... Switzerland · Glacier Express · Black Forest · Freiburg · Alsace · Strasbourg · Luxembourg
Sometimes a great journey needs one more round of planning.
Because of changes to the scheduled walking events, we had to rethink parts of the program, adjust a few components, and make some changes to the route. That makes us all the more excited to finally share our Highlights Tour “From the Alps to the Heart of Europe.”
We begin where the landscape becomes truly grand: in Switzerland. Mountains, valleys, and sweeping views accompany us from the start, and aboard the legendary Glacier Express, one of the major highlights of the journey already awaits. Through panoramic windows, dramatic mountain scenery, deep gorges, and unspoiled valleys pass before us – a rail journey where the route itself becomes part of the experience.
From there, the character of the journey changes step by step. We discover the Black Forest, spend time in Freiburg, continue through Alsace with its vineyards and charming villages, explore Strasbourg, and finally arrive in Luxembourg.
There, walkers from around the world will come together for the 20th IVV Olympiad.
What began as a necessary adjustment has developed into a journey we are now even more excited about: varied, scenic, full of memorable cities and shared experiences, with enough time along the way to truly enjoy each place.
You’ll find all details, the complete itinerary, included services, and full descriptions on our website. And of course, if you have any questions, feel free to contact us directly at

We’re very happy to finally share this journey with you – and even more excited about everyone who will be joining us along the way.
