Product Description
Product Description
This comprehensive walking guidebook to the Tramuntana mountains and north of Mallorca includes GPS way points for pin-point navigational accuracy. We wanted to do more than sit on beaches. With this excellent, inspiring book we discovered the real Mallorca. The walk descriptions are clear, and the mapping first class. You can easily see how long difficult each route is before you start. Plenty of background information including bars and restaurants. We have just got into GPS, which made the book even more useful for us with its waypoints to keep you on track. We would recommend this book to all walkers - even if you have used the (late) June Parker walking books for the island, we think you will find this an excellent replacement. We would also recommend the companion "Mallorca North & Mountains Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map".

Format:Hardcover
This book is easy to use with its lay flat spiral binding. The book contains 44 routes in the North & Mountains regions of Mallorca.
If you know the island and have walked there before, you will find some old favourites. But there are several routes in it that were new to me although I have been going there for years.
I like the style of writing and also the helpful details, such as plenty of walk timings along the route, ascents & descents, distance covered, compass direction, recommended refreshment places on or near the route, etc.
Particularly good are the map sections, as they are really clear yet with plenty of detail.
I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to walk in Mallorca.

This is a well researched and well written walking guide. It includes map extracts from the companion map (which is also highly recommended). These are sufficient to follow the route but I always like to have something to give a broader perspective as well and the associated map did that well. The routes we used were interesting, pretty easy to follow and accurate.
I wish we had had more time to try more of the walks.

stunning walks
A week's late sun and some walking in Mallorca so opted for this guide, simple and well laid out - bit warm for walking though.

Great walks! Great guide!
Some walking guides are whimsical, others minimalist, others discursive and others just dated. This is bang up to date and I used it extensively for 2weeks in early September where... Read more
