What are the easiest mountain peaks in Alps that does not require rope/climbing/scrambling? [closed]
Next summer I wonder if there are any mountain peaks starting at 1500 meters and up to 2500 (to avoid oxygen problems beyond that), for average fitness person who is not an experienced mountaineer, does not know how to climb and just wants to get a great view from the top. Also, no good with ridges.
A rather easy walk uphill that is, up to 2500, with mountain hut accommodation, in the Alps? Any suggestions?
Best Answer
If you want both the highest and the easiest, that must be Pic d'Artinsol. It's just a hair below 3000m, the official height I believe is 2997m. But there's a chair lift to 2121m and the summit is a very easy walk from there.
