Five Weeks One Summer

Mountain walking in the Swiss Alps - breathtaking, dramatic scenery in a magical region, a network of mountain huts, rustic inns, spectacular lakes, glaciers, flower-filled meadows... super fun! Interested? Martin Block's enthusiasm for alpine walking spills over into this fascinating and sometimes moving 'diary' of his solo alpine venture, originally intended as a guide book 'for mountain walkers who wanted to climb amidst the big peaks' - the Matterhorn, Monte Rosa, and Dent Blanche to name a few. Packed with gems of information and written in an easy-going, light-hearted style, Five Weeks One Summer is backed by the author's stunning photos of the area he knows well. Fit and ready to go? Got the official guide books and maps, but need some first-hand tips and motivation? Read this first - and enjoy!
