Product Description

Book Description
Walking in Portugal guides you through the countryside of Europe's forgotten outdoor destination with step-by-step descriptions of 33 walks, from one-hour strolls to epic, five-day adventures, all illustrated with detailed, full-colour maps. There's also information on walking conditions, wildlife, food & drink, accommodation and local culture. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

From the Publisher
The second edition of Walking in Portugal has been completely re-researched and re-designed. There are now 32 pages of colour maps to match the step-by-step walks in the guide. More than just a collection of route descriptions, Walking in Portugal introduces you to Portuguese geography, culture, food and drink, and includes a detailed, illustrated section on the country's wildlife. Once you pick a region or two to visit, Walking in Portugal lets you into some local secrets. Find out what the weather will be like, what wildlife you might encounter, the best places to stay whatever your budget and which local dishes to sample. There are also practical tips on trail conditions and route markings, where to buy maps and supplies, and what to do if things go wrong --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good book, and good but tough walking!, 20 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Walking in Portugal (Paperback)
This book is pretty well the only guide to walking in Portugal, so it's pretty hard to give it anything less than 4 stars. The authors have also obviously spent a lot of time following the routes - and probably marking them with shepherd stones - because the descriptions of the paths are excellent. The wildlife guides, though rudimentary, are also useful. However, the book does have faults. The maps in the book are next to useless - you have to rely on the text to work out where to go - which is a shame. Another minor issue was the lack of advice about what to wear. I wish I'd been warned to wear trousers. It was hot and I wore shorts, but my legs got torn open by the gorse that I had to wade through! While the country is very beautiful, it is only slowly waking up to the potential of walking tourism, and the paths are left to get very overgrown. It's worth the effort though - and this book helps to make it possible!
