Swiss Alps (Reynolds Kev)(Paperback)

Explore the Swiss Alps from west to east, from the Matterhorn and the great valleys of Zermatt and Saas-Fee to the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau above the Bernese Oberland and the Bernina and Silvretta ranges on the borders of Italy and Austria. One of the world's great mountain destinations, the Swiss Alps offer a lifetime of walking, trekking, climbing, and ski mountaineering in some of Europe's most spectacular scenery. This large-format Cicerone planning companion by celebrated author Kev Reynolds is a comprehensive guide to the Swiss Alps, covering every mountain area in the country valley by valley across seven regional chapters. Rather than a conventional route guide with detailed step-by-step descriptions, it is a richly detailed reference work designed to inspire and inform, directing the reader to the finest walks, treks, climbs, and ski tours in each area and providing everything needed to plan a Swiss Alps adventure at any level. Explore the full sweep of the Swiss Alps across seven regional chapters, covering the Chablais Alps, Pennine Alps, Lepontine and Adula Alps, Bernina, Bregaglia and Albula Alps, Bernese Alps, Central Swiss Alps, and the Silvretta and Rätikon Alps, with dozens of individual valleys described in detail. Plan walks, treks, climbs, and ski tours across every level of ability and ambition, from gentle valley walks and multi-day hut-to-hut treks to serious alpine climbs on the 4000m peaks of the Pennine Alp
