Walk! Instant-Books Digital Edition
9 total works
Apart from checking access to extant itineraries and revising certain routes and descriptions according to the suggestions of readers, eleven itineraries have been rewalked in order to incorporate new paths, variants proposed by readers, or to check that tricky trails had not been completely overgrown, and eight new walks have been incorporated.' Thank you to the thousands of walkers who have enjoyed the 2nd edition of Walk! Mallorca North & Montains, and especially to the many who have contributed ideas, advice and observations that Charles Davis has incorporated into his new 3rd edition; Mallorca's most popular walking guide book has just got even better.
