Discover the Hohtälligrat and the Stockhorn in the Valais region in Switzerland. Wanderlust Alps guides you in the most incredible paths around the Alps.
The Geisler Group’s many-peaked ridge looks spectacular from this side, and you might think that breaching this fortress is impossible, but there is an easy way up. Wanderlust Alps shows you the most exciting routes in the Alps.
There is one last key section of high ground to negotiate as the trail enters the Jura Vaudois Nature Park, starting with a big climb to the summit of Mont Tendre—the highest Swiss summit outside the Alps. Mont Tendre’s summit is a broad, undulating ridge dotted with trees, offering very good views over Lake Geneva and the Alps beyond. Mont Blanc can be seen glittering like a jewel on the horizon.
Hikes in the Aiguilles Rouges, a far lower mountain range to the north of the valley, enable the hiker to enjoy the best possible views of Mont Blanc without risking life and limb in the process.
The main chain of the Alps may get all the accolades and harbor plenty of the best hikes, but many of the ranges of foothills—or Prealps—are just as good. Of these, one of the most celebrated is the Vercors Massif. Known as the Fortress or the Limestone Citadel, and sometimes as the French Dolomites, the Vercors is a north-south ridge with a steep escarpment to the east, a system of plateaus to the west, and a great deal of top-quality hiking in between.
When most people think of the Alps, they think of Switzerland, and for good reason: this is the range’s heartland, filled with countless high peaks. Opportunities for adventure here are without limit, from high-altitude mountaineering to long- distance hut treks along the country’s spine. Find out more in Wanderlust Alps.
The GR5 is one of over 100 GR routes. Most are in France, the Netherlands, Spain, Germany, and Belgium, and they vary in length and difficulty. Some are segments of even longer European long-distance paths (E-paths); the GR5, for example, is part of the longer E2. The GR paths were established from 1947 as a response to the introduction of French paid summer holidays in the 1930s.
The Alta Via 4 will take you through the most majestic regions in the Dolomites: the Sesto Group (including the famous Tre Cime di Lavaredo), the Cadini di Misurina, the Sorapiss Group, and the Marmarole Group. Find your way with Wanderlust Alps by gestalten.
Discover the Austrian Alps with Wanderlust Alps by gestalten.
Its most celebrated corner is the Geisler Group, a western outpost of the range that forms one of the classic skylines of the Dolomites. Find out more in Wanderlust Alps by gestalten.
