The Tour of the Jungfrau Region is described as a clockwise hut-to-hut circuit, beginning at Schynige Platte and ending at Wilderswil, broken into 10 stages (with a number of alternatives offered). The 111km trek takes you in a horseshoe loop through the Bernese Oberland's most spectacular mountain scenery, in the shadow of such iconic peaks as Wetterhorn, Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau. In a journey of 9 to 10 days the Tour visits pastures, ridges, summits and passes, skirts exquisite mountain lakes and gazes on waterfalls, gorges and glaciers. Accommodation is both plentiful and atmospheric, and the route has lots of bad-weather alternatives.
Kev Reynolds devised the Tour of the Jungfrau Region. He is a freelance writer, photojournalist and lecturer and was the first honorary member of the British Association of International Mountain Leaders (BAIML). His first title for Cicerone appeared in 1978, and is still in print. The present book is his twentieth on the subject of the Alps.
