Combining the delights of exploring new peaks with those of a superb descent - that's the magic of ski touring.
This new guidebook describes a selection of classic ski tours together with several lesser-known and often-overlooked gems that will inspire skiers to expand their horizons.

Rather than attempting to produce a comprehensive guide, the aim was to describe a selection of routes that should be within the capabilities of most skiers and to include outings suitable for newcomers to the sport, as well as longer and more technical itineraries for experienced ski tourers
