100 Hut Walks In The Alps: Routes For Day And Multi-Day Walks

Beskrivelse

Discover 100 carefully chosen routes across the Alps, stretching over 1000km from near Nice to the outskirts of Vienna. This guide highlights the incredible variety of landscapes found in this stunning mountain range.

A comprehensive collection of alpine walks featuring mountain huts, suitable for all levels.

The Alps extend in a vast arc of more than 1000km (620 miles), from the Mediterranean coast close to Nice all the way to the gentle, forested foothills near Vienna. This guidebook presents a selection of routes that capture the full range of mountain scenery the Alps have to offer.

Whether you prefer easy, relaxed walks or challenging, longer treks, there’s something here for every taste. Most routes steer clear of technical climbs, with only occasional scrambles aided by fixed ropes. Glacier crossings, which pose hidden dangers like crevasses, are mostly avoided, though a few walks do venture onto ice to reach remote huts.

Mountain huts, found in some of the most spectacular Alpine spots, are a key feature of these walks. They provide welcome rest stops and facilities, whether you’re staying overnight or just stopping for a meal or drink on the terrace. These huts vary widely, from simple, unstaffed shelters to lively inns offering hot showers and restaurant services.

This guide covers 100 routes across France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, and Slovenia, including suggestions for hut-to-hut tours that suit alpine walkers of all abilities.
