Mountaineering in the Swiss Alps presents a selection of classic
routes in the main Swiss climbing areas that have forged
Switzerland's reputation as a mountaineering paradise. Featured are
over thirty climbs, ranging from relatively easy normal routes to
more challenging itineraries. All are within the capabilities of
most mountaineers and provide an excellent introduction to the wide
variety of climbing that Switzerland has to offer. Every route,
whether it is a pure rock climb, a mixed ridge, a big north face or
a long traverse, was chosen for the beauty of the surroundings and
the quality of the climbing. Some are on world famous peaks that
every mountaineer aspires to climb, such as the Matterhorn (Mont
Cervin), the Breithorn and the Monch; others are on lesser-known
summits and will delight those who like getting away from the
beaten track. Written by mountaineer and author Stephane Maire,
each route features technical notes, a route description and topo,
and photos illustrating the climb's unique character.
