Показать описание
Chris heads to the Alps to ride on six pioneering mountain railways. It’s the middle of winter, with snow and ice constantly threatening to derail his journey, as he crosses Austria and Switzerland on ever higher and higher railways to find out how and why these extraordinary lines were built. Along the way he faces some terrifying 19th Century winter sports and a climb up the North Face of the Eiger. Will Chris conquer the Alps? Or will they conquer him?

That's a sacred doorway. How amazing to be able to step through and spend even a few

Amazing and disturbing that many climbers have died on the mountain while just meters away tourists are enjoying their train ride.

That is better than just 1 minutes worth. But where is the rest of the program?

You don't need ski there. Oxygen tank is enough.
