Holly Morris explores two areas of the Alps, incorporating
several different trekking adventures: the Italian Dolomites,
a rock climbers heaven, and the Matterhorn in Switzerland.
Holly starts off in the Via Ferratae, Italy's famous
'iron ways', a series of iron ladders and ropes that link
some of the most spectacular rock climbing faces in the world.
She scrambles across exposed two foot wide ledges with thousand
feet drops and climbs up one hundred foot ladders to the higher
elevations that even mountain goats cannot reach.
Holly then heads across the Alps to Zermatt, Switzerland
to climb the most awesome looking mountain in Europe - the
Matterhorn. This is one of Holly's most personal missions.
It requires a great deal of stamina and endurance as she uses
every ounce of strength to get to the top. |
