Guidebook to the Walker's Haute Route, a classic 140-mile (225km) trek from Chamonix to Zermatt, linking Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn - the most spectacular peaks in France and Switzerland.

- Taking in 11 passes and more than 14,000m of ascent, the route can be walked in 12 to 14 days, staying at mountain huts
- Easy access from Chamonix, Argentière, Trient, Champex, Sembrancher, Le Chable, Verbier, Arolla, Les Haudères, La Sage, Zinal, Gruben, St Niklaus and Zermatt
- Clear route descriptions, 1:50,000 mapping and elevation profiles, along with details of accommodation, facilities and alternative routes
