Product Description
Product Description
Pocket sized, full colour guide describing car tours, walks and countryside picnics, all illustrated with photographs and large scale (1:50,000). Dubbed the 'Blue Bibles' by the Sunday Times, the Sunflower Landscapes series aims to get visitors away from the crowded tourist centres and out into the countryside, by car or on foot. On line update service for alll the latest information. The Picos de Europa, one of Europe's last mountain wilderness areas, are the high point of a long ridge of mountains which runs along the north coast of Spain, the Cordillera Cantabrica. Ranging in altitude from 150m to 2648m (about 500-8700ft), the Picos are divided into three spectacular limestone massifs separated from one another, and from the surrounding ranges, by precipitous gorges - a truly spectacular area in which to walk or tour. This guide contains a wealth of information about the dazzling array of plant and animal life you can expect to see when exploring the range. The author, an all-round naturalist and corresponsent for BBC Wildlife, has also contributed to "Spain - the Rough Guide". Tereda Farino has been living in the Picos de Europa for over twenty years. 'We have walked and climbed in the Rockies and the Himalaya, but the Picos are unique, and we are so glad that we went. Your book contained so much information, together with the beautiful pictures and the very useful maps, that we felt we were really getting under the skin of this part of Spain. (M.H., Glos.). Your walks took us through flower meadows awash with fragrance, buzzing with insect life and clouds of butterflies, through sleepy villages lined eith cherry trees so heavily laden that fruit fell to the ground untouched, and up through steep mountain gorges with goats and donkeys for company. Thank you so much. (S.P., Harrogate).
