LA PALMA

K. A WOLFSPERGER

In 50 hikes, this guide opens up Southern Norway between Oslo, Bergen and Lindesnes: The range spans from the highest peaks in Northern Europe, in Jotunheimen National Park, to the picturesque forests and lakes in Telemark and the high heathland areas over the waterfall-rich Setesdal valley, from the cliff scenery in Rogaland and on the glacier-covered Folgefonn peninsula, to the panoramic domes and plant oases of Rondane National Park, from the mountains near Oslo, to Hårteigen. With a selection of hikes for every physical condition, Bernhard Pollmann, one of the finest experts on Norway as a hiking paradise, describes "easy" and "difficult" routes family-friendly hikes are included, as are climbs up deserted peaks, challenging day-long hikes, and tours covering several days from cabin to cabin.

The greenest of the Canary Islands awaits the walker with more variety of landscapes than can be found in any other similarly small region in the world. Wide valleys, wild gorges and crater landscapes, pine- and laurel forests, banana plantations, cascades and waterfalls form a rich contrast with one another. The walking here is superb and the dark-black beaches, beautiful as they are, pale into insignificance in comparison to the offerings of nature which in all corners of the island surprise you with ever-changing scenery. The island offers incomparably pleasant strolls between gleaming lava beaches, lush laurel woods and cloud-ringed ridges. And ever-present is the deep blue Atlantic. La Palma is made for the walker who loves nature and seeks adventures away from the noisy beach resorts and cheap tourist attractions. This guide presents the walker with a wide range of enjoyable walks incorporating every region on the island: from physically demanding excursions into the rugged barrancos in the north to the romantic scenery of the setting sun on the 2000 metre peaks, not to mention the truly phenomenal volcano route; from gentle walks through bright green pine forests and across dark lava streams to the most spectacular destination on the island: the giant unspoilt landscape of the Caldera de Taburiente, surrounded by thousand metre high precipices, one of the greatest erosion craters in the world. This Rother guide is the most comprehensive and popular walking guide to La Palma and has been the definitive guide for many years. The present edition has been totally revised and now extended to include 63 walks - an all-round successful guide, excellently illustrated with maps (scale 1:50,000), which will arouse your curiosity and can be highly recommended to all mountain lovers on La Palma.

Cyprus is not only famous for its cultural heritage and 9000 year old past – »Aphrodite’s Island« is one of the most popular hiking destinations in the eastern Mediterranean. The centre of the island is dominated by the Troodos mountain measuring some 2000 m in height, which despite its considerable altitude is more reminiscent of European low mountains, due to its softly rounded and forested peak. This Rother hiking guide proposes 50 routes mostly ranging from easy to medium level. Next to mountain tours, it also includes a selection of coastal paths along bizarre cliffs and adventurous ravine tours. Forest paths and nature trails lead through aromatic cedar woods, silent valleys and to remote Byzantine churches and monasteries. Classic spring tours are those which take visitors across the peninsula of Akamas, when colourful carpets of flowers and orchids blossoming by the wayside unveil their typical Mediterranean charm. Cyprus extra: an ideal vacation includes hiking and swimming on white sandy beaches – the water temperature on the sun-bathed »island of the gods« reaches more than 20 degrees Centigrade even in the month of November! Size: 17 x 12 cm; colourful illustrations and detailed maps; soft cover.

Le premier mot en portugais que les amis de la randonnée apprennent sur Madère est certainement "levada". La randonnée levada est certainement quelque chose d'unique au monde. D'étroits canaux d'irrigation traversent l'île dans tous les sens en un réseau sophistiqué. Sur les chemins de maintenance construits à coté des canaux étroits, on peut découvrir les coins les plus reculés de Madère sans monter très haut.  Un peu plus que la moitié des parcours présentés dans ce guide sont les randonnées levada. Ils vous conduisent à travers des champs fertiles de canne à sucre, de bananes, de vignes et de fruits exotiques, en passant par des terrasses modelées avec beaucoup d'art dans la topographie déchiquetée de l'île, rappelant le Bali ou les Philippines. Les 50 randonnées proposées, toutes illustrées de belles photos, offrent tellement d'idées qu'un seul séjour ne saurait suffire pour toutes les découvrir.
