 Rating:  - If you like walking, don't leave for Lanzarote without itJust returned from a 2 week holiday in Lanzarote, and really glad we bought this book, and the accompanying map before we went. The walks take you to parts of the island you would never see by road, and gives you the confidence to explore without wondering whether or not you are going somewhere you shouldn't be. There are 32 routes in all, of varying lengths and difficulty, all very well explained.

Rating:  - Good walks, well written, but over-protective of the walker.I have just returned from Lanzarote having filled a whole week with walks from this book. The island is not the obvious choice for a walking holiday, but you'd be surprised what is hidden away from the typical tourist haunts if you are prepared to get out and look. This book helps you to do just that. The routes are good and very well explained, accompanied by accurate maps and even photographs, some of which can be of great help when finding the route (Eg. The start of the 'Hidden Barrancos' descent!). Congratulations to the authors. If the book has a down-side it's that the authors feel the need to wrap the walker up in cotton wool. On countless occasions we are unnecessarily warned that the path is 'skittery', on some ... Read More: |
