The Alps is a vast mountain system in south central Europe, extending over 750 miles (1,200 km) through South France, North Italy, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Germany, Austria and Slovenia. The Andes chain is generally about 200 miles (300 km) wide, except in Bolivia, where it expands to twice that width.
The Alps includes several hundred peaks and glaciers, including numerous peaks over 12,000 feet, with Mont Blanc highest at 15,771 feet
