Walks
in the Engadine: 100 Walks and Treks (Cicerone Mountain Walking
S.)
Walk Switzerland. Tucked
away in the south-east corner of Switzerland, the Engadine is
a region of lakes and mountains, home of the country's only
national park, guardian of the Romansch language and location
for some of the most sublime villages in all the Alps. In this
long-awaited second of edition of his guide Walks in the Engadine,
Kev Reynolds has selected more than 100 of his favourite routes
that not only reveal breathtaking views, but take the walker
into secretive inner glens and onto remote alp pastures bypassed
by the 21st century. Graceful Piz Bernina, glacier-hung Piz
Palu, the bold granite form of Piz Badile - these form part
of the backdrop. But there are other peaks too that the modest
walker can climb, and snow-free passes that link one enchanting
valley to another.
Ticino,
Switzerland: A Walking Guide
The Ticino Alps of southern Switzerland, best known for the
lakeside resorts of Locarno and Lugano, provide some of the
finest uncrowded paths of all the alpine regions. Away from
the main valleys secretive inner glens reveal 'lost' alp hamlets,
crystal rivers and tarns and long feathery cascades. Granite
peaks form a dramatic backdrop to every outing. High passes
lure the adventurous, belvedere trails surprise with their vast
panoramas, and in the valleys there's an air of soft enchantment
among the chestnut woods. Remote mountain huts offer accommodation
for walkers in the high country, while valley based lodging
is provided for in attractive Italian-style villages bright
with flower-decked balconies. The guide describes all the valleys
and villages, which takes you to the finest viewpoints and suggests
75 of the best walks to be enjoyed in the Alps of Ticino. Walk
Switzerland.
The
Bernese Alps: A Walking Guide (Cicerone Mountain Walking S.)
Walk Switzerland. Over
100 routes in the Bernese Alps are described in this third edition
of Kev Reynolds' popular guide. It is an indispensable companion
to a region that boasts famous peaks such as the Eiger, Monch
and Jungfrau. But there are lesser-known mountains too that
are just as scenically dramatic, and in their shadow peaceful
villages and seemingly forgotten hamlets are lodged in spectacular
locations. Add to that the romantic valleys, lakes, flower-filled
meadows and a network of mountain huts and rustic inns for those
who want to experience the Alps of the Victorian pioneers, and
you'll understand why the Bernese Alps seduce the connoisseur
back year after year. All this, and more, is available to the
mountain walker, and this indispensable guide will enable you
to explore the very best of the Bernese mountain wonderland.
