About this ebook

A guidebook to 35 day walks and 2 multi-day hikes in Switzerland’s Arolla and Zinal. Exploring the beautiful scenery of Val d’Herens and Val d’Anniviers, west of Zermatt, the routes are generally long and high but on well-maintained paths, with some calling for a good head for heights.

  • 1:50,000 maps are included for each walk
  • GPX files available to download
  • Detailed information on planning, facilities and public transport
  • Highlights include Dent Blanche and Lac Bleu
