      PREFACE TO THE THIRD EDITION

      The opportunity to produce a new edition of this guide has enabled me to update the previous edition, replace a handful of routes and introduce some new huts. That is not to suggest that those no longer included were lacking in interest – either the huts or their routes of approach – but were sacrificed to give a slightly better balance to the collection. Once again I have been encouraged by users of previous editions of the book who wrote to share their experiences and suggest other routes to include. They have my thanks, as do the hut guardians and members of various Alpine Clubs who keep the huts maintained and waymark many of the trails. I’m grateful as ever to Switzerland Tourism for generous assistance during research, to Jonathan Williams and his team at Cicerone Press for their continued support and encouragement, and to my wife who makes it all worthwhile.

      INTRODUCTION

      Extending in a huge arc of more than 1000km (620 miles) from the Mediterranean coast near Nice to the low, wooded foothills outside Vienna, the Alps display the full gamut of mountain landscape features. With such a varied panoply of dramatic and spectacular scenery, there’s nothing remotely comparable anywhere else in Europe – maybe in the World – and for two centuries and more walkers, mountaineers and general tourists have been flocking there in increasing numbers, and coming away enriched.

      Walking is unquestionably the best method of exploring, and it is the mountain walker for whom journeys in the Alps reveal some of the finest views, the greatest contrasts. This book then is a guide to just 100 walks out of the many thousands possible, with a geographical span that ranges from the Maritime Alps of southern France to the Julians of Slovenia, from Italy’s Gran Paradiso to the little-known Türnitzer СКАЧАТЬ
