Book Description
Walk Mallorca North and Mountains 2nd edition is a 160 page full colour guidebook containing 44 fully detailed walking itinerarys, complete with gps waypoints and 1:40,000 colour map sections for every walking route, plus colourful background information; providing everything you need to explore the beautiful landscapes of the Tramuntana mountains and Northern Mallorca. Wire-O spiral binding allows this book to lay flat for reading and be folded back on itself when in use without damage. Full colour map sections for each walking route are from the latest edition of Mallorca North & Mountains Tour & Trail Super-Durable Map. All of this brought together in Charles Davis' inimitable inspirational writing style to produce another classic title in DWG's Walk! series of guidebooks. Walking routes range from strolls up to full 5 Walker ratings for fit, adventurous, mountain walkers. Charles has unearthed routes not found in other books, along with the classics of this beautiful region. Charles' writing is so good, you could simply buy Walk! Malloca North and Mountains as a winter read to brighten up a dark night - but be warned, within a few pages you'll be hooked and getting online, picking up the phone, or hot-footing it down the travel agents, to book your flight to Mallorca. If you are familiar with Charles Davis through Walk! Mallorca West, Walk! La Gomera, Walk! the Alpujarras or 34 Alpujarras Walks, Walk! Axarquia, Walk! Andorra or Walk! La Palma, you will know what to expect. Should Walk! Mallorca North and Mountains be your first introduction to Charles Davis you will soon appreciate why he is the new 'rock star' of mountain walking.

Synopsis
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".
