This talk based on results of ref. {[}1], where we constrain the energy at which the transition from Galactic to extragalactic cosmic rays occurs by computing the anisotropy at Earth of cosmic rays emitted by Galactic sources. Since the diffusion approximation starts to loose its validity for E/ Z >= 10(16-17) eV, we propagate individual cosmic rays using Galactic magnetic field models and taking into account both their regular and turbulent components. The turbulent field is generated on a nested grid which allows spatial resolution down to fractions of a parsec. If the primary composition is mostly light or intermediate around E similar to 10(18) eV, the transition at the ankle is ruled out, except in the unlikely case of an extreme Galactic magnetic field with strength > 10 mu G. Therefore, the fast rising proton contribution suggested by KASCADE- Grande data between 1017 eV and 1018 eV should be of extragalactic origin. In case heavy nuclei dominate the flux atE > 10(18) eV, the transition energy can be close to the ankle, if Galactic cosmic rays are produced by sufficiently frequent transients as e. g. magnetars.
