Hi all,

Bit of a long shot really but I'm wondering if anyone has been bouldering out in Switzerland, and specifically in the Martigny area (Branson, Gueroz and La Balmaz). I've been on a bit of an internet wild goose chase and am struggling to find the topos ... I know that this 2003 guide covers the area but am assuming that its out of print.

If anyone has a copy or knows where I can get one, info would be greatly appreciated!

In reply to 10biscuits: You'll find copies of that book in shops in Switzerland. Try http://www.la-haut.ch/ or http://www.lookmontagne.ch/ or probably better still go to the new wall in Saxon http://www.vertic-halle.ch/

Good magazine article here if you read french.

Cheers Graham, that new wall looks pretty damn good! Will definitely go and check that out. I'll send them a message too and see if they carry copies of topos for the area. Thanks for the info!

good shout on Look Montagne as well.. may as well pop in to Martigny on the way to that new wall

I think the bimano.ch website covers these areas. Not sure exactly as they are in the process of updating the website. But for Kandertal they have/had plenty of good photo topos and info (in German). Well worth keeping an eye on for the new website/app when it launches.
