The key to this trip is Kev Reynolds's excellent book 'Alpine Pass Route' by Cicerone press, which contains everything you want to know. My kit list is below...everyone's will vary but with a lot of effort I kept to 8kg before water and food. This was no problem for carrying. Having purchased over £100 worth of maps The new site www.schweizmobil.ch has everything for free. However all footpaths in Switzerland are very well sign posted. As long as you know the name of the next pass / village you should be OK.... but I wouldn't go without a map. I went in early June, which is probably to early. I also made most of the journey by myself.... because of safety a few times I thought this might not be the wisest move. |
