DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis pocket-sized full-colour guide is designed for walking in Mallorca with a gastronomical touch, using public transport. Even 'non-walkers' will appreciate the recommendations for Mallorca restaurants. The walks are dotted all around the island, with most in the west and mountainous northwest. Note: There is some overlapping of walk routes between this book and Landscapes of Mallorca, so do use the 'Look Inside' facility to compare coverage in the two guide books. For each suggested restaurant there is a photograph of the dcor and one of their dishes, plus sample menu, price guide, opening times and a recipe for one of their specialities. Other sections include: planning your trip, logistics on arrival, local markets and specialities, glossary of local food terms, and a restaurant mini-vocabulary. A special feature is the emphasis on natural local foods suitable for those with food intolerances. All recipes have been made by the authors and are known to 'work'. 10 walks and 2 excursions (one long trip by train, tram and boat, the other a train ride to the centre of the island); plan of central Palma; island map; large-scale (1:35,000) topo maps for the walks. Free online update service with specific route change information on the publisher's website, maintained daily.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKGuide to walking on La Palma. In total 45 day walks are described ranging from 7 to 32km in length, and covering a wide variety of terrain. Although La Palma is one of the smaller Canary Islands, there are routes of all types from easy strolls to hands-on scrambling, from simple day walks to long-distance treks on rocky mountain paths, including the GR130, which circumnavigates the island, and the island-hopping GR131. With full route descriptions, including custom-made maps, refreshment options and transport for each walk, accommodation, useful contacts and a Spanish-English glossary. The book also includes lots of background information on geology, wildlife, plants and flowers. The circular GR130 trail takes about a week to complete and can be started and finished at any point around the island. The GR131 trail is exclusively high level and mountainous, requiring careful planning. The dramatic volcanic landscape of La Palma, reputed to be one of the steepest islands in the world, is little-known outside the Canaries, but offers an ideal winter walking destination for walkers of most abilities, featuring rocky treks and mountain paths.
