100 Hut Walks in the Alps

by: Kev Reynolds
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 Türnitzer Alps of eastern Austria, and from the ice-bound giants of the Bernese Oberland to the green rolling Kitzbüheler 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.
