Expert Kev Reynolds describes 100 day walks between the many excellent mountain huts of France, Switzerl&, Italy, Austria & Slovenia, enabling reader to put together their own tours through this wonderful mountain chain. There are walks here to suit every taste & ability: from gentle & undemanding to long & tough, as well as all varieties of difficulty in-between. There are huts to suit every taste, too, from unmanned shelters to mountain inns with hot showers & restaurant service. Most of the routes avoid any climbing of a technical nature, beyond the odd scramble aided by a fixed rope. Most are circular routes, but there are also suggestions for some hut-to-hut tours. The walks are grouped by country & each route is illustrated with inspiring photos & a sketch map. Notes on hut etiquette, what to take & an English-French-German-Italian glossary are also included to help trekkers get the most out of their time in the Alps.
