Rother

Fascination AlpsX vol. 1

<div><div>Not only under the spell of the Großglockner and Großvenediger, the Tauern High Trail stretches over a total length of around 200 kilometers, crossing all the mountain groups of the Niedere and Hohe Tauern from east to west: Seckauer Tauern, Rottenmanner Tauern, Wölzer Tauern, Schladminger Tauern, Radstädter Tauern, Ankogelgruppe, Goldberggruppe, Glocknergruppe, Granatspitzgruppe and Venedigergruppe.</div><div>Hans Führer, author of this excellently featuring hiking guide, describes not only the tried-and-tested and popular routes along the main ridge, but also numerous new routes, some of which are unmarked, which enable hikers to avoid overcrowded sections of the trail and get to know still largely quiet and undeveloped mountain groups.</div><div>All stages, variants, summit detours as well as ascent and descent options of the famous, and in some passages quite challenging, high-altitude trail are described in detail - all important information on accommodation is also provided. Elevation profiles and detailed color maps at a scale of 1:75,000 based on the Freytag&amp;Berndt hiking maps help you plan and complete the routes. In addition, the handy pocket-sized volume is illustrated with informative and inspiring color photos and elevation profiles.</div><div>The current edition of this Rother hiking guide has been thoroughly updated and extended to include several stages and variants. Free GPS data is also available for all stages and variants. True to the motto "The journey is the reward", you can tackle the Tauern High Trail adventure, past the frosty peaks of Austria's highest summits.</div><div><br></div><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Hans Führer | Rother Verlag | 5th edition 2016 | 312 pages | 179 color illustrations, 51 hiking maps at a scale of 1:75,000, two overview maps at a scale of 1:600,000, 99 elevation profiles for all stages | 11.5 x 16.5 cm | paperback with Polytex lamination | German</span></p></div>
