| | Mountaneering |
In this page we collect links about mountaineering. You can find further information in the pages about free climbing and about trekking and hiking.
Very often you can find very valid information on the links dedicated to National Parks; here we won't list them to avoid confusion (they are a lot), you can find them in the pages dedicated to the single Countries.
Among the sites we have met or which have been pointed out, we list those which can provide some useful material to organize a trip (others can be found in the section "Travel stories" for each state).
