Product Description
This book describes just 100 hikes out of the many thousands possible in the Alps, with carefully chosen mountain huts providing the focus for each hike.

With a geographical span in Europe that ranges from the Maritime Alps of southern France to the Julians of Slovenia, from Italy's Gran Paradiso to the little-known Trnitzer Alps of eastern Austria, and from the ice-bound giants of the Bernese Oberland to the green rolling Kitzbheler Alps and the bizarre towers of the Dolomites of South Tirol, each day-hike and its associated mountain hut has been especially selected to show the amazing diversity of this wonderful mountain chain.

There are hikes to suit every taste: gentle and undemanding, long and tough, and everything in between. Most of the routes avoid climbing of a technical nature, beyond the odd scramble aided by a fixed rope.
