Alpine topics that become the heart of the matter: the latest edition of the BERG bestseller.
For people who love the mountains
The Alpine Club Yearbook BERG has been the most widely distributed publication in the mountain book sector for years - at an excellent price-performance ratio and with consistently high quality in both appearance and content.
The BERG 2021 edition places the Karnischer Kamm at the center of the BergWelten section and is dedicated to the theme of hiking - and therefore a favorite leisure activity of Austrians and Germans. Well-known authors cover these topics in their usual varied ways. For example, the popular presenter and best-selling author Manuel Andrack admits why he prefers hiking in the German low mountains than in the mountains; the well-known sociologist Hartmut Rosa explains in a conversation the basic resonance experience that makes walking in nature possible; further articles are devoted to the health aspects of walking and address the question of what walking experiences actually mean for families with children.
Hiking is also the best way to explore the Karnischer Kamm. The famous Karnischer Höhenweg (Karnischer Höhenweg) runs across this mountain range on the Austrian-Italian border. At its foot are three valleys and municipalities labeled "Bergsteigerdorf" (mountain village) and which are impressive for their natural and cultural originality: the Lesach Valley, the Tyrolean Gail Valley and the village of Mauthen. In addition, the Carnic Alps offer Austria's southernmost glacier and a globally unique selling point: Here, a 250-million-year history of the Earth comes to the surface and fulfills a 200-year-old research tradition, which allows the creation of a geopark and numerous scientific geotrails has made. Here the history of the Earth can be experienced and understood in a fascinating way.
The BergMenschen (Mountain People) section features a portrait of Bavarian mountaineering legend Hermann Huber, who celebrates his 90th birthday this year, and Andrea Eisenhut. The first German sport climbing champion (1991) is still climbing at the 10th degree even at the age of 60 and has opened numerous difficult alpine routes in recent years. Gerhard Heidorn spoke to her about ambition, motivation and growing older.
Christoph Ransmayr, one of today's great storytellers, is central to the BergKultur section. Why do unoccupied spaces such as mountains, seas and deserts play such a central role in his work?
BergWissen is concerned, among other things, with the growing risk of rock falls on alpine trails in the wake of climate change and how to deal with it and deal with it. The question of what rights nature actually has and who represents it is also exciting and explosive.
Under the motto "Nothing is as constant as change", the BergSteigen column reports on great classic Western Alpine tours in the era of global warming and records the chances that top international alpinists and competitive athletes took before the coronavirus took over the world. and what this crisis situation in the spring of 2020 means for them personally and for mountain sports. Time and again it's a reflection period - which Andi Dick uses to reposition his self-image as a mountain climber. And to pick up the hugs for humanistic values in mountaineering. It would be up to us to make the world a better place.
