Product Description

Product Description

Covering 16 treks and 12 climbing peaks, this guidebook is designed for both first-time trekkers and experienced climbers visiting the Pyrenees and Cordillera Cantabrica - northern Spain's "trekking paradise". From the celebrated trails of the Pyrenees to the less visited, but no less spectacular, footpaths of the Picos de Europa in the Cordillera Cantabrica, the book offers clear descriptions of treks and of more aspirational peak climbs. Information on indigenous wildlife and the stunningly varied landscape - snowcapped peaks are never far from dense forests or sun-baked river gorges - is complemented by practical advice on travel, techniques and equipment. Strip maps pinpoint every route and give a reliable idea of distance and timings.


About the Author

Jim Thomson has lived in the Picos de Europa for 13 years. Together, he and his wife lead treks in the local mountains and other destinations such as South America and Nepal, and run the small Hotel Torrecerredo. Ilja Schroder has been working as a nature photographer and observer for 17 years. He has lived in the Pyrenees and Cordillera Cantabrica since 1989, where he specializes in photographing and studying the behaviour of wolves and bears. Consultant Victor Saunders is an internationally respected climber, qualified alpine guide and previous winner of the Boardman-Tasker prize.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book of the century, 29 Jun 2004
By James Thomson (Arenas de Cabrales, Asturias Spain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
"Suspense, romance, terror and intrigue, this book has got the lot. As the plot reveals itself, you are immersed in the incredible scenery of Northern Spain. An absolutely outstanding work of art. At only 19.00 a copy, I found it extremely good value. So much so, that I bought numerous copies to present to all of my friends and family at Christmas and Birthdays. My brother who is a keen walker, his wife and family run a hotel in Northern Spain and this book has solved the on going problem of what to buy them on these occasions. Well done and I can't wait for the sequel"

5.0 out of 5 stars Trekking and Climbing in Northern Spain , 10 Nov 2008
By Adrian Bell (Cheshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Stumbled upon this in a bookshop three years ago having already bought the same publishers companion book on the Alps.
I have found this book far more inspiring. It has already prompted four Pyrenean adventures and dreams of many more throughout northern Spain.
Wonderful.
