Opis

This 82-day walk through the Alps starts at Menton on the Mediterranean coast and follows the French-Italian boarder hills to Lake Geneva. The route then continues through the Swiss Alps crossing the Bernese Oberland and the Bernina Alps before entering the Sudtyrol. Here the journey traverses the Ortler range and the Dolomites to their north-eastern end near the Austrian border. The final 11 days head South through the magnificent Veneto Dolomites to Vittorio-Veneto where the hills fall to the plain around Venice. Much of this delectable route is off the beaten track, but sufficient detail is given for a reader to be able to walk the route in manageable stages and find lodging and a meal each night. The printed book has 144 full colour illustrations of the walk and 7 pages of maps"
