It's a huge, spectacular mountain with five tops and five glaciers dominating a spur from the main Himalayan axis. The trek to its base via the Nepalese foothills has been describing quite simply as The Most Beautiful Walk in the World.This book is a guide to that trek.

It's a sparsely populated region with a greater sense of isolation than in more populated areas of Nepal. The trails are rougher, the facilities more primitive and the routes less well defined, offering a different kind of experience to that of the more mainstream routes and with the undisputed scenic grandeur for which Nepal is famous.
A guidebook to walking in the Ticino Alps of southern Switzerland, Europe, best known for the lakeside resorts of Locarno and Lugano.

Remote mountain huts offer accommodation for walkers in the high country, while valley-based lodging is provided in attractive Italian-style villages bright with flower-decked balconies. The guide describes all the valleys and villages, takes you to the finest viewpoints and suggests 75 of the best walks to be enjoyed in the Alps of Ticino.
