Product Description

Product Description

Aimed at both the experienced climber and the first-time trekker, this guidebook introduces one of the world's least known trekking destinations with 26 treks and 18 climbing peaks in the Andes. Covering the range from Venezuela in the north to Patagonia in the south, the book offers clear descriptions of treks - some short, two-day hikes and other, more strenuous two-week treks. The guide is also packed with practical information on travel, techniques and equipment, to help travellers have a safe and healthy trip. Strip maps pinpoint every route and give an idea of distance and timings, and photographs illustrate the landscapes en route.

3.0 out of 5 stars Trek and Climb, 12 Aug 2007
I found this book very useful as it linked well known treks with climbs of low grade - ideal for someone who wants to get to some peaks, is willing to do more than walk but who isn't quite ready for very technical climbing.
