I don't know the tour, but according to what I read, it is a 67 miles long tour divided in 6 days, on average 6 hours walking every day, topping at 8 hours on the 2nd day. You have to be fit and have some experience of mountain hiking. Having someone taking care of your luggage and accommodation is not a bad idea, if you want to do the hike.

My general idea of this kind of things is that they can be great or miserable according to weather: doing it in sunny time would be great (but low Venosta valley is very hot in summer, that is why they grow such good fruit and wine); doing under the rain would be miserable. That is why I prefer not to commit to mountain tours in advance - but I am a grumpy old fellow so do not take me at face value.
