Versante Sud Ski Mountaineering between Italian and German Switzerland ski mountaineering guide
Versante Sud Ski Mountaineering between Italian and German Switzerland is a ski mountaineering guide through which you can explore the Central Alps of Switzerland, Grisons, Schwyz, Ticino, and Uri.
Through 66 wonderful routes divided among classics, plaisir, and exploratory, some of which are uniquely described in this guide, you can break away from the usual patterns and delve into this paradise for ski mountaineering. Switzerland is extremely varied from a morphological point of view, and the choice to practice ski mountaineering in its Central Alps has a significant practical aspect: it allows for easy passage from the southern to the northern side of the Alps, thanks to the Gotthard tunnel, and offers a wide selection of exciting routes, some of which will take your breath away.
You will head north of the Gotthard to undertake the great classic Urane routes, ranging from the Klausen pass to the Furka pass, to enjoy the gentle slopes of the Uranian pre-Alps and Schwyz. Alternatively, you might opt for an excursion in the Ticino Alps or the western Grisons to immerse yourself in varied and often harsh and isolated environments. In a sense, these routes are aimed at demanding ski mountaineers and lovers of effort, where you will often find yourself having to break the entire trail, without encountering a living soul.
The author is Andrea Giussani, a great enthusiast of ski mountaineering and a deep connoisseur of the Canton Uri and Zentralschweiz. A lover of adventure and unconventional tours, in addition to ski mountaineering, he practices bikeskiing and mountaineering during the summer season.
