Réunion Topo-guide

£17.50

A topoguide published by the Fédération Française de la Randonnée as part of their extensive series of similar walking guides to France and its overseas departments. The guide covers three long-distance footpaths, the Tour du Piton des Neiges circuit (GR R1), the route across the island (GR R2) from Basse-Vallée to St Denis, and the GR R3 circuit - the Tour de Mafate. The guide contains colour extracts from the topographic survey of Reunion at 1:25,000, overprinted with the routes. The descriptions of the routes are divided into short sections according to the difficulty of the terrain, and are always placed next to the maps for easy reference. The text is in French, but a large amount of information is conveyed by symbols. A list of all the main points along the routes indicates what facilities can be found there: public transport, food shops, accommodation etc. The guide also includes historical information about the island and numerous colour photos. 160 pages
