Guidebook to 45 day walks and treks ranging from 4 to 32km in length on Tenerife, in the Canary Islands. The routes described are made up of 40 one-day walks, with four routes covering El Teide, plus the GR131 is described as a five-day long-distance walk from Arona to La Esperanza. This route can of course be followed as a series of linear day-walks broken at intervals.

The walks range from easy strolls to hands on scrambling; from simple day walks to a 32km (20-mile), rugged 'Three Peaks of Tenerife' route, climbing Guajara, Pico Viejo and finally El Teide, Spain's highest mountain. Detailed route descriptions are illustrated with the author's own clear contour mapping and colour photographs. The guide is split into seven sections - Anaga, Teno, Arona/Guia, Valle de la Orotava, Parque Nacional and El Teide - covering all the best walking to be had on the island.

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.
