Series details

£9.99

In 50 routes Rothers walking guide to the central Pyrenees offers a selection of walks covering Panticosa to Benasque. The choice of walks does justice to the unique countryside, while taking into consideration the various needs and abilities of hikers.

The diversity of this region’s countryside is matched by a variety of hiking options: Isolated valley paths, challenging summit climbs, panoramic bridle paths, airy ledge belts and impressive canyon tours invite walkers to discover and enjoy a mountain terrain that has remained largely unscathed by mass tourism and its consequences.

With detailed desciptions of each walk come accompanying maps at 1:25,000, 1:50,000 or 1:75,000 scale, and one overview map (1:500,000) ideal for general planning; as well as the inclusion of maps there are 91 photos, all full-colour.

About this series:

Rother Walking Guides were first published in 1920- since then Bergverlag Rother have continued to produce these comprehensive guides to “the finest valley and mountain walks”.

Each book has a detailed description of walks, small walking maps and many tips on combining the walks, places of interest, accommodation and public transport; the guides are all in full colour with varying scales and types of cartography - the walks themselves vary from day-long hikes to mountain and valley walks, with varying levels of ease and difficulty indicated.
Small enough to fit in your pocket, comprehensive enough to take you everywhere; the books are printed in paperback but with a polytex-laminated cover, making them extremely durable too.
