Wildflowers of the Tour du Mont Blanc - Paperback
Wildflowers of the Tour du Mont Blanc - Paperback
Description
by Leslie Madsen (Author)
As one of the most famous long-distance hikes in the world, the Tour du Mont Blanc (TMB) delivers the goods when it comes to fabulous scenery: massive mountains, impressive glaciers, endless vistas of valleys and the bucolic clanging of bells from bovines grazing in high meadow pastures.
But an overlooked bonus of hiking the 105-mile TMB through France, Italy and Switzerland is a palette of colors that treats trekkers to a smorgasbord of wildflowers whose histories are as interesting as the flowers themselves are beautiful..
This book identifies over 70 varieties of flowers found by the author on the Tour du Mont Blanc. Accompanied by pictures, scientific names, locations and botanical histories, it also contains a plethora of folklore and fun facts that will keep hikers and armchair wildflower aficionados turning each page to see what delightful flora can be found on the trail!
