| Haute Route, Chamonix - Zermatt |
|
A masterpiece.
|
The Haute Route, the queen of all ski mountaineering, is probably the most famous ski tour in the world. The classic route crosses more than 23 glaciers on a 90 mile ski traverse between Chamonix in France and Zermatt in Switzerland. On the way you climb and descend about 10.000 metres, ski in three countries, pass Mont Blanc, the Aiguille Rouge, the Col du Chardonnet, the Fenêtre du Saleina and the Matterhorn. The Haute Route was first completed on foot by members of the Alpine Club in 1861 and later developed into a ski route by Joseph Ravenal and his party of ski-mountaineers in 1903. The days are long, the climbs are tough and the skiing is fantastic. For the price, the period and for more information, please send an e-mail to: info@friendsofarco.it |
