What's the best long walk in Europe? My vote goes to THE CLASSIC WALKERS' HAUTE ROUTE - CHAMONIX TO ZERMATT.
Chamonix to Zermatt: The Classic Walkers' Haute Route is a truly spectacular route which crosses a series of ridges projecting from the main spine of the Pennine Alps, making a pilgrimage from the foot of Mont Blanc to the Matterhorn, passing in full view of the largest collection of 4000 metre (13,000ft) summits in western Europe. But these mountains are not just high, they're dramatically beautiful too, and every day of this two-week trek will give you a sense of wonder.
Since the first edition of Chamonix to Zermatt: The Classic Walkers' Haute Route guide was published in 1991, scores of trekkers have written in to express their delight with the route. The latest edition (the 5th) of Chamonix to Zermatt: The Classic Walkers' Haute Route suggests one or two new variations, and includes the exciting two-day walk along the Europaweg from Gasenried to Zermatt which provides the ultimate finalé to the most scenic trek in
the Alps.
