Hi, anyone know where you can get a decent Via Ferrata guide book for Switzerland? Ideally like the Cicerone ones for France and Italy. The only one I can see in English is only available second hand on Amazon and Ebay and they want £90!!! (presumably indicating how in demand they are). I did see a nice looking on a European canyoning store but it's only available in German. Any pointers appreciated.

Yikes, i have this one at home, not sure i would pay £90 for it!

Which area are you looking at?

There is a few listed here but i suppose you have found that already?

€33 seems more reasonable. Good guides, I've got the one for Austria

I've done quite a few Swiss ones if you need recommendations.

Perhaps hijacking slightly however any recommendations around Interlaken or Zermatt (easy preferably) would be much appreciated!

Yes I have that one, about £10 if I remember right 

Around Interlaken there’s the Eiger Rotstock which is quite easy but has a steep scree descent with a couple of unprotected steep steps. Also Murren has a sport via ferrata which unusually goes down instead of up. It has some interesting features and needs a good head for heights. Finally the Schwarzhorn which is a fairly straight forward one. 
 

I’ve also done one in Zermatt which is made up of three parts. Can’t remember its name but it wasn’t particularly difficult. Sure you’ll find it with a quick Google.
