Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Very useful for Pyrenees virgins planning a trekI'm planning to walk over the Pyrenees from Catalonia to the Midi this summer, and was looking for a good resource to give me a well-informed idea of possible starting points, finishes, distances and the natural obstacles involved. Although the Rough Guide was slagged off somewhat by previous reviewers for being a) too big to be properly useful as a hiking guide, and b) too useful specifically for hikers (there's no pleasing some people!), I'm glad to say that it's perfect for me - I'm not going to take it on the trip, but I'll be siphoning every little bit of information from it while planning. And there's a lot of information. For instance, all the telephone numbers for refuges are there - indispensable if you're planning ... Read More: Rating: - A hefty book for distance walkersRough Guides are an essential part of any travellers kit. This one is quite different from the usual tourist information found in other Rough Guides. Aimed at distance and trek walking rather than the country stroll. Not much in the way of those little details found in other editions that make the contents so interesting and informative. Shame this is not pointed out before purchasing. Rating:  - Designed more for walkers than general touristsA book of this scope is needed and useful, but the format is not especially easy to use, and seems to be aimed more at hikers. Yet if hiking, why not get the more easily visual 'Trekking in the Pyrenees' published by Trailblazer. The maps of towns like Jaca and Pamplona are useful. |
