They are the watershed of Western Europe. Moreover they separate two climatic zones - north and south. They could even be said to be the frontier between two worlds, the Anglo-Saxon and the Latin. The remark is also true when we consider Europe in the other direction: in the west of the influence of the Atlantic reaches far inland, while the east has a continental climate, the warm air off the Hungarian plains. The Alps.Voltaire called them "those haughty mountains which weigh down upon hell, and split the heavens". They were long thought of as a frightful place, into which travelers ventured only at their peril, the realm of death and silence. But there is life hidden among the ice and snow. Hardy shoots of vegetation cling to the rocky crags at great altitude; grass waves in the wind at the rim of huge abysses. Then we come down to the enormous upland pastures, strewn with wild flowers such as gentian, and the great coniferous forests, with their endless interplay of light and shade. The Alps are, with the wealth of their diversity, the quintessential mountain range, forever associated with mountain climbing, to which they have contributed, inter alia, a synonym - alpinism. Whatever the country, the region or the altitude, the Alps offer a greater wealth of delights than one could hope to find in any other mountain range.
