This guidebook describes 40 day walks exploring Snowdonia. It
showcases some of the best mountain walks in the area, with routes
up Snowdon and Tryfan alongside other classic peaks like Y Garn,
Cadair Idris and the Glyders. Routes are graded easy to strenuous
and include airy and pulse-quickening scrambles such as Crib Goch
and Bristly Ridge as well as the Snowdon Horseshoe, the Nantlle
Ridge and a 2-day traverse of all 15 of Snowdon's peaks over
3000ft. Walks range in distance from 4 miles (6km) to 16 miles
(26km). Clear route descriptions are accompanied by OS mapping, and
for each walk there is key information about distance, grade,
ascent, terrain, access and parking. With useful advice on where to
stay and when to go, and an English-Welsh glossary, this book is an
invaluable guide to discovering both the popular and less
well-trodden corners of Snowdonia. Snowdonia can justifiably lay
claim to some of the finest mountain walking in Britain, from the
bristling, jagged ridges of Snowdon to the huge grassy mounds of
the Carneddau and the stone-girt fortresses of the Glyderau. These
are big mountains with big personalities, with glowering crags and
deep rocky cwms. Whether you are based in Bala, Beddgelert,
Llanberis, Betws-y-Coed, Dolgellau or Capel Curig, you'll find
walks in this guidebook to suit you.
This guidebook describes 50 circular walks and scrambles exploring
the Costa Blanca mountains, around the resorts of Alicante,
Benidorm and Calp. These routes range from gentle strolls to
demanding days with steep climbs, and from 3-20km in distance. The
Mediterranean coast is one of Europe's most popular winter sun
adventure destinations. In general UK visitors are best suited to
the heat from late autumn to early spring. Beyond the beaches and
high rises lies a completely different world of accessible, rocky
mountains and knife-edge ridges that stretch away in long chains of
gleaming white limestone pinnacles, and the range of walks ensures
that everyone can enjoy this spectacular Spanish landscape. Walking
on Costa Blanca also includes background information on local
geology, wildlife and history, and planning details on where to go,
where to stay and what to take.
