<p>The magic of Provence paired with snow-capped four-thousand-metre peaks - the eastern Dauphiné has two excitingly beautiful and very different faces: between the towns of Grenoble, Briançon and Gap, the southernmost four-thousand-metre peaks of the Alps rise up in the Écrins massif. Hardly anyone can escape the fascination of this wild, unapproachable mountain range. Further south, you can already sense a hint of Provence - you will experience mountains full of broom, lavender and fragrant herbs. The Rother hiking guide "Dauphiné East" presents 50 wonderful hikes and multi-day tours in these two regions.</p><p>With their tour suggestions, the two authors Iris Kürschner and Dieter Haas arouse curiosity about an untouched landscape that is rarely experienced in the Alps.
