Greatest 4000 m peaks in the Alps

A lot of people in Europe are collecting 4000 m peaks (there are over 80 of it).
Some of them are easy-going (f.e. Breithorn). Some are difficult but have not a very spectacular form, some are both. And some are world-famous like Mont Blanc and Matterhorn.

So I created an album with great pictures of the following mountains:
Mont Blanc
Zinalrothorn
Matterhorn
Grandes Jorasses
Barre des Écrins
Finsteraarhorn
Dent du Géant
Piz Bernina
Lyskamm
Jungfrau
Weisshorn
Dent Blanche

Please add spectacular pictures of these mountains to my album - that I can dream on!

Sebastian HammWhat´s about

Voted 10/10

Weisshorn - some people says it is the beautiest mountain in the alps!

Täschhorn - one of the difficultiest mountains

Dent Blanche - One of my favourite ones

Aguille Verte - A "TO HAVE"!

Nice album, dream about these mountains. We will do them peu a peu the next years.

Dom has a great summit view but the descent is a little bit monotone. So I won´t add it!
But Dent Blanche is a good idea... I will add it. Have another look then! I would be glad if you vote my page then.
Thanks, Thomas

I´m glad that you liked it! When we are not in the mountains we have the possibility to dream of them! That´s why I created this album.
Cheers, Thomas
