Recent results on very high energy cosmic rays will be presented. The observation of the GZK suppression at the end of the energy spectrum and the measurements of the mass composition will be discussed in detail together with the search for extragalactic sources.

I will review current limits on astrophysical neutrinos with emphasis on the implications for models of cosmic-ray origin. IceCube results are presented in a separate talk.

In recent years, ground-based very-high energy (E>30 GeV) gamma-ray astronomy has taken on a major role in high-energy astrophysics. The high sensitivity and performance parameters, still far from the limits of the observation technique though, have lead to the detection and enabled studies of more than 100 sources of various source populations, like pulsar wind nebulae, shell-type supernova...
