Description

<p>Getting up early, making beautiful tracks in the snow and getting stuck in a traffic jam in the evening... Many ski tourers are familiar with this: everyday life sometimes catches up with them quicker than they would like. So why not extend your break by one, two or even three days? Spending an entire - perhaps even extended - weekend out and about promises even more relaxing mountain experiences. Furthermore, the radius of action increases and new, attractive destinations come into focus.</p> <p <p>In this Rother ski touring book, Michael Pröttel presents 20 varied touring areas between the Dachstein in the east and the Glarus Alps in the vest. Here you are out and about for two to four days at a time: from comfortable valley accommodation or from hut to hut, on exciting circular tours or on lengthy area crossings, the "supreme discipline" of mountaineering. You spend a comfy evening in the hut and are back on your skis the next morning right after breakfast. Because ski tourers today plan flexibly and go where the snow conditions are excellent and the risk of avalanches is low, the author has chosen his tour destinations carefully - true to the motto: There's always something somewhere! The routes presented lie to the north and south of the main Alpine ridge, they touch all slope directions, run on wide slopes and between steep rock faces, they lead across gentle alpine meadows, through arctic glacier landscapes and up many famous three-thousand-metre peaks. <p>All routes are described in detail and precisely, brief information provides all the important details at a glance. Map sections at a scale of 1:50,000 and 1:75,000 with marked routes provide an excellent overview of the routes presented. Not to forget the "show values": 100 color photos that make you want to set off the very next weekend - and stay in the wintry mountains for at least two days.</p> <p
