Bradt Travel Guides er et engelsk forlag med over 200 titler som i hovedsak er skrevet for turister som bruker offentlige transportmidler og egne ben. Bradt har vunnet mange priser for reisehåndbøkene sine som er kjent for å være sterke på mindre kjente reisemål som ikke er overfylt av turister. Forfatterne sørger gjerne for å gi bøkene en personlig ”touch”, og er ikke redde for å være subjektive. Dette gjør dem både til tider morsomme, i tillegg til å være informative og enkle å lese.

Bradt Travel Guides var svært tidlig ute med fokus på viktige emner som økoturisme og den reisendes ansvar som gjest I et fremmed land. Reisehåndbøkene gir råd til hvordan man best kan nyte en eventyrlig reise borte fra turisthordene samtidig som man gjør det mulig for lokale samfunn og natur å dra nytte av besøket. Bradt er guidebøkene til mindre kjente reisemål du ikke vil finne hos andre utgivere. De er gode følgesvenner for eventyrlystne med ryggsekk på et gjennomsnittlig budsjett.

A guidebook to walking the Camino Portugues (Portuguese Way), 620km from Lisbon in Portugal to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The book gives stage-by-stage directions for the Central Camino, starting from Lisbon, Porto or Tui, the Coastal Camino between Porto and Redondela, and the Spiritual Variant route from Pontevedra to Padron. It also describes link routes that can be used to swap from one route to another.

Detailed route guidance and maps are accompanied by fascinating information about historic and religious sites passed along the way. It is packed with essential information for pilgrims, with advice on getting there, when to go, where to stay and equipment. An indispensable facilities table showing the availability of accommodation, refreshments, supermarkets, ATMs and pharmacies along the route, and a handy glossary, make this the complete guide to the Camino.

Since 1211 Santiago de Compostela has been a place of holy pilgrimage and the Camino Portugues is the second most travelled pilgrim route. The largely rural journey takes in four UNESCO World Heritage Areas - the Knights Templar Castle at Tomar, Portugal's oldest University at Coimbra, and the old towns of Porto and Santiago - culminating at the cathedral at Santiago de Compostela.

This guide describes a varied selection of 57 walks on the Portuguese island of Madeira, exploring the dramatic cliff coastline, scenic levadas (irrigation channels), dense laurisilva 'cloud' forests and high mountain peaks, plus three walks on neighbouring Porto Santo. There are routes to suit all abilities, from easy, level levada walks to steep and rugged mountain paths - some with exposed sections calling for a sure foot and good head for heights. Since the steep terrain of Madeira does not easily support circular walks, many of the routes are linear, however most can be accessed by public transport and there is the option to link routes to create longer outings and multi-day hikes.

With a favourable climate and striking scenery, Madeira is a fantastic walking destination. The routes in this guide are spread across the whole island, and visitors may choose to base themselves in the capital, Funchal, or in one of the many smaller towns and villages. Regular flights and ferries link Madeira with Porto Santo, which boasts an exceptional sandy beach and pleasant, easy walking.

The guide also outlines a day-cruise to the nearby uninhabited Ilhas Desertas. Comprehensive route description, overview statistics and sketch mapping are provided for each walk. There is practical advice on travel and transport, a basic map of central Funchal and fascinating notes of Madeira's geology, history, plants and wildlife.

Useful contacts and a Portuguese-English glossary (including a menu decoder) can be found in the appendices.
