Flying over the Alps
Crossing the Alps is not easy in VFR. The main problems are the weather, loosing VFR conditions, and the ability to reach the safe altitude to cross the pass you selected to fly over.
So try this little challenge with real weather. Load your plane with 4 people and try. If the weather deteriorates, then return. If the clouds are lower than your flight altitude, there is now way to do it.
If you can't climb enough, decide early enough to do a turn to gain more altitude or if the engine has not enough power, just go back, instead of crashind into the rock, because you couldn't climb high enough.

Behind we can see Montserrat - thinking about deviating there...
Montserrat
Got advice to land on runway 10. Rather stay to high than to low
Today I continued my flight as planned to TFFR, Point-a-Pitre
Last view on the spectacular fotoscenery from Montserrat by Blue Sky Scenery
Also very beautyful the apporach on Point-a-Pitre with scenic views of the island and town
With smaller GA aircraft turn to the right side of rwy 12 for stands and parkings. Interesting tower, reminds me at flamingo airport in Bonaire.
Flight planning is straight forward and you can deviate on two occasions. At the end, you have four further airports to connect with short flights. Hope you enjoyed the flight.
