Bucket-List: European Alps Hiking

 Bucket-List:  European Alps Hiking

Schrecksee, Allgäu, Hochgebirgssee
We, the people to whom travel and hiking comes from the heart are well known of the fact that the European Alps offers a plethora of walks. But we fail to plan often being confused - where to start? This was a subject I was going through for some times and finally after hard research over the topic, I am here to pen down the outcome: The Ultimate Hikers Bucket List, as you can name it, off course.

Matterhorn Circuit


In my opinion this circuit, perhaps should be high on the bucket list of any keen walker. Hiking around the Cervin, perhaps the most recognised peak in the Alps and criss-crossing between Italy and Switzerland, this trek circuit is a true walker’s delight with steep ascents,  high pass crossings, besides spectacular views and isolated sections of trails that makes one feel like out there on your own.

Chamonix to Zermatt 

This route in between Chamonix ( Mont Blanch ) and Zermatt ( Matterhorn ) in a true sense was established by the expert mountaineers, but one can enjoy the magic of the walk all the way along the classic walker's route. Hey you need to be fit enough to enjoy the mind blowing views of 4000m+ peaks such as Zinalrothorn, Weiss horn and Dent Blanche.

Grand Combin Traverse

Sitting in the border of Switzerland and Italy in the Pennine Alps the peak of Grand Combin, is a spectacular mountain, rising above 4314m above sea level. The trails here are so quiet that one can enjoy the peaks and passes almost all to his own self. This is to keep in note that this region ia famous for the St. Bernand dog, which found the fame rescuing travellers traversing the St. Bernand Pass from their base. One can stay one night in the pass to appreciate this historic location.

Dolomites  Walk

The region has a brilliant network of trails that weave between the beautiful villages and every varying vistas. Reinhold Messner, one of the greatest climbers under the universe was inspired by the jagged spires of the "Pale Mountains".

Tour de Monte Rosa
One can call name it one of the best walk in all of Europe - around the highest peak in the Pennine Alps, followed by the second highest in the entire European Alps - the Monte Rosa (4634m). Trek through the amplitheatre of awosome and inspiring 4000m peaks, marvel at the glaciers and appreciate this serious walking challenge in a spectacular alpine setting, following the footsteps of Leonardo da Vinci along ancient mountain trails linking Switzerland to Italy.

Have a heads for heights? Experience the Dolomites from the top down thanks to a network of iron ladders and cables. I bet it will be a spectacular activity to remember. And off course no previous climbing experience required.

Aerospace Bristol, England Bristol, is the home of Concorde. The supersonic passenger jet was largely developed here, and the UK assembly line was located here and all UK Concordes made their maiden flight from the city’s runway – so the last Concorde ever to be built takes pride of place.

Love: Singular word , plural meaning

Love!    Being a singular word with a powerful meaning, it consists of plural actions and many experiences. Desired by almost everyone still, it is one of the most demanding things in the world, yet. Right, isn’t it? We often talk about love like it is one simple thing, but you are guaranteed to encounter these types of love at least once in this lifetime. Let’s have a look at the actual scenario about which love are you experiencing right now and check how much it’s affecting your love life.  One of the harder ones for people to escape, yet so easy to fall into, may be called as  Empty Love . You feel like you are on cloud 9 one moment, then spiraling the next. These empty relationships are as empty as the person creating it and usually involves a chaotic teeter-totter effect. Sadly, you don’t know how long you can stay attached to this person. At the end of the day, you do not really love them, you just love what they can do for you. Qui...

PNB scam: Nirav Modi with love

If sources are to believed, it has been in news that Mr. Nirav Modi has filed petition in the US court and the verdict was that, no banks or institutions, can ask his companies to refund the loans till further notifications. Yea, that's a good news for him and a temporary relief too.  My open letter to you, Sir..... Dear Mr. Nirav Modi You are a busy man, but I hope, you, by this time had managed to see the movie " Ek Tha Tiger ", the blockbuster starring Salman Khan & Katrina Kaif , especially the end part. Huh...it says that Tiger and Joya (respectively the names of the character played by the actors) have been seen in different parts of the world, yet not sure, and intelligence agencies could not trace them.

Wherever you are, stay blessed, yea, I mean it and you to...
