Finally, here's a guide for all those who enjoy visiting mountain huts (refuges). 100 HUT WALKS IN THE ALPS picks out some of the finest hut locations in the Alpine regions of France, Switzerland, Austria, Italy and Slovenia. The vast majority of these walks lead through or to mountain landscapes that will take your breath away. That is, if walking steeply uphill hasn't already done just that. There are well over a thousand huts in the Alps, and this book describes some of the best. Many are manned in the summer with food and drinks available, making the perfect excuse to stop for refreshment, or to spend a night in an unforgettable location.
A few of the routes described in 100 Hut Walks In The Alps can be linked to create multi-day hut-to-hut journeys well away from valleys and villages, but the majority are there-and-back (or circular) day walks with a mountain refuge as the focus. Most huts are accessible from fairly well-known resorts, but several remote and unfamilar regions have been included in an attempt to tease the adventurous walker to try somewhere a little different. 100 Hut Walks In The Alps is illustrated with well over 100 colour photographs.
