Monte Bianco - Guida turistico escursionistica

The roof of Europe. Symbolic crossroads of Alpine culture, between Italy, France and Switzerland. A multifaceted area, but characterized by a historical and environmental homogeneity that makes it unique among the mountains of Europe. The highest peaks on the continent, imposing glaciers, peaks that have made the history of mountaineering. A hub of international tourism, a territory served by very modern infrastructures, but so large and articulated as to hide almost inaccessible corners, where nature keeps all its strength intact. To explore Mont Blanc you need something more than the usual guide. Therefore, this book is a never attempted tool which, valley by valley, allows you to discover, on foot or on snowshoes, all the faces of the large mountain group: Valdigne and the Piccolo San Bernardo valley, Courmayeur, Val Ferret and Val Veny , the great excursions in the French sector, Chamonix with its extraordinary glaciers, and finally the Swiss side, perhaps the least known and wildest, full of surprises and unforgettable landscapes. An extraordinary selection of excursions suitable for everyone, without mountaineering difficulties. Introduction to the area, tourist information (access, ski lifts, summer and winter activities, parks and museums, refuges and support points), cartography, in-depth information to learn more about the culture and nature of the area.
