Please click on the hyperlink of the relevant Stage – you will be diverted to the original page in the Via Alpina website in English. It will open in a new page. If you wish to look for the stage the other way round, just click on the box “reverse direction” on the relevant page.
You can enlarge the small pictures by clicking with the left side of the computer mouse: it will open in a new page.
