Quite simply La Gomera and El Hierro Tour & Trail Maps are the most detailed, accurate, toughest, easy to read, large scale maps of La Gomera and El Hierro that you can buy. Our map sheet is 840mm by 680mm. On the cover side you get the latest 35k scale 8th edition La Gomera Tour & Trail Map by David Brawn. On the reverse side is our 35k scale 1st edition El Hierro Tour & Trail Map by Jan Kostura. Both maps are produced to our 'Tour & Trail' level of detail ranging from major roads to secondary roads to minor roads to streets and camino rural narrow country roads, plus dirt roads and walking trails. Walking trails are specially highlighted, GR (Gran Recorido trails in green) and Walk La Gomera (in red), making them easier to identify on the maps and easier to find on the ground. Altitude background colouring is designed to clearly show the altitude range when traveling across each island by car or on foot. 100 metre and 50 metre contours, 100m and 20m on El Hierro, are clearly shown on the map along with a large number of individual height points and all of the official 'Trig' points. Tour & Trail attention to detail is legendary as is our useful symbol range including miradors, picnic areas, petrol stations, bar/restaurants and parking areas where you can pull off the road safely.You will easily identify springs, caves, sports grounds, cemeterys, churchs, chapels, lighthouses, towers and forts, camping areas, wind turbines, hotels and those all important information offices. For adventurers on foot Tour & Trail Maps are researched and designed by hikers for use by hikers. Our comprehensive gps ground surveys produce the best road mapping available but the value of this on the ground research becomes even more important when you leave the tarmac. Digital editions of these maps are available for the Viewranger and LocusMap apps, plus Custom Map versions for Garmin mapping gps units are available as a digital zip file download from Discovery Walking Guides. These Super-Durable Maps are printed using UV cured inks printed onto a 100 micron plastic substrate. This produces a Super-Durable map sheet that feels like silk but will stand up to the roughest treatment of outdoor adventuring and yet fold up like new at the end of your adventure. DWG's special concertina map fold means your map is easy to unfold, and easy to fold back to its folded pocket size. Super-Durable Maps come with a 2 year adventurous use wear and tear guarantee, see Discovery Walking Guides website for details. For your best adventures, choose the best map.

If you are new to walking in the Yorkshire Dales, you're in for a treat, as we trace our way up the Three Peaks. First though, we'll do them one at a time, giving a chance to savour the experience, as well as getting to know the area. Paul Shorrock is the 'local' expert who has brought together the whole 'Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge' adventure. He starts by exploring each of the three peaks through six day walks before moving on to tackle the whole challenge. Everything you need to explore these glorious landscapes and prepare yourself for the 12 hour Challenge is included in 'The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge':- - Fully detailed walk descriptions, with frequent timings to aid navigation, for the six day walks and the complete challenge. - OS 25k large scale mapping of all the walking routes. - gps waypoints for the pin-point navigational accuracy that is so valuable for a successful challenge. - Full training, accommodation and local information for everything you need to know before attempting the challenge. The Three Peaks of the Yorkshire Dales provide some of the finest walking in Britain. With a combination of high peaks and stunning scenery the area is rightly popular with outdoor types, from leisure walkers up to super-fit fell runners. It always seems to follow that when you have a mix of high places and human beings, sooner or later someone will come up with an idea of a challenge of some kind. With the Three Peaks of Pen y Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough the solution was simple - do them all in one walk! New for the 2nd edition is the news that Paul's routes are now the 'official' Y3P routes.

A hundred kilometres northwest of Seville lies a region of truly unspoilt rural Spain. Once a province of Portugal the Sierra de Aracena encapsulates almost everything that we look for as the idyllic walking destination; rural beauty in flora and fauna, breathtaking landscapes, unspoilt towns and villages linked by old donkey trails. All it lacks are high mountains. The Spanish have known about this isolated region for sometime and arrive at weekends and in mid-summer, but on weekdays and out of season it returns to peaceful tranquility. Few 'outsiders' know of this delightful region and you can be the first to read about it in English. We first discovered the region five years ago, when we thought it too isolated to justify a guide. Since then we have returned regularly, completing our walking research and map surveys in Oct/Nov 2003 and final walking research in May 2004. Now we feel the time is here to introduce you to our secret. Picture sloping meadows dotted with Cork Oaks where herds of inquisitive Iberian black pigs roam at will in a piggy paradise, switch to pollarded Chestnut trees with lively herds of goats, switch to the flock of sheep and lambs that graze outside the apartments at Villa Turistica Fuenteheridos, add in horses and donkeys grazing amongst the trees and meadows and you have the picture of an idyllic bucolic landscape. The wild life is equally impressive, we saw two black vultures on our first day and another two days later. Wild flowers abound like nowhere else. Botanists arriving in Spring will think they have landed in paradise. At first we tried keeping notes of the species, but had to give up because there were so many including several we had not seen before. The undergrazed meadows are a carpet of colour from the flowers. Wild Peonies colonise the chestnut orchards west of Castano del Robledo. Occasionally one species will dominate a meadow or hillside but normally there is a complete mix of species lining our walking routes. Keen plants people should double our walking times just to allow time to marvel at the wild flowers. And the walking, with settlements linked by a rural network of tracks and trails centuries old you will not be seeing much of the quiet tarmac roads in the region. Tracks and trails range from immaculate cobbling to occasional cobbling to dirt and some are eroded by storm damage. Most of the time we are on clear well-made trails but be ready for some rough stuff. This is not a mountainous region but the steep sided ridges that comprise the Sierra de Aracena have plenty of 'puff and grunt' ascents, most just melt away but Linares de la Sierra to Alajar when we were caught in a downpour was quite hard work. 'Adventurous leisure walker' is how we would catagorise the walking with plenty of ups and downs so a moderate level of fitness is needed. Sierra de Aracena is far from the realms of mass tourism and the nearest you will find to crowds are busloads of Spanish pensioners visiting the Grutas de Maravilla caves in Aracena and the famous ham factories in Jabugo. Horse riding holidays are becoming popular, expect jodhpurs with breakfast at the Sierra de Aracena Hotel and Finca Valbono. Headwater offer an 'Undiscovered Andalucia' week of guided walking in the region. We flew to Malaga, picked up a pre-booked Peugot 206 and drove the 300 kilometres to stay at Villa Turistica de Fuenteheridos. There are hotels and modern hostels in Aracena, Fuenteheridos, Grazalema, Almonaster and La Posada in the country north of Cartagena; full accommodation information is in the book. In Oct/Nov 2003 we visited the Feria de Setas in Aracena to marvel at the amazing wild mushrooms collected from the local woodland. This time it was the Feria de Animales like a small county show for cattle, sheep, goats and pigs; but mostly an excuse for the regions farmers to get together for three days of 'Archers' style conversation, eating and not a little drinking. "Sierra de Aracena - a Walk! Guidebook" will introduce you to this beautiful region through our 27 fully detailed walking routes backed by masses of useful information. Every route has 1:40,000 scale colour mapping from our "Tour & Trail Map", plus GPS Waypoints for pinpoint navigational accuracy.

The whole 'Wainwright' Coast to Coast on one double sided, 960mm by 694mm, map sheet.

Ordnance Survey accuracy is combined with Tour & Trail map design to produce 40k scale map sections which are easy to read.

Isle of Wight Walkers' Map at 32k scale with challenge routes and walking trails highlighted. OS 50k scale mapping is expanded in size to produce a 32k map. The OS features, text and logos are now 50% larger making them much easier to read under outdoor conditions.

The result is an easy to read `OSlike' map with walking trails specially highlighted.

The result is a double sided 840mm by 694mm OSlike Super-Durable Map. We then print the map design on a 100 micron plastic substrate using a special UV curing inks process on the UK's only press capable of using this latest technology. The printed map sheets are then folded using a special concertina map fold to its pocket size of 230mm by 120mm. The result is the Isle of Wight Walkers' Map. A lightweight map that is both accurate and easy to read and use. Super-Durable means your map is waterproof and tearproof, and fully recyclable.
