The Eastern Pyrenees belong to the most spectacular landscapes in south-western Europe. This walking guide presents the many varied opportunities on offer to hikers and mountaineers on the south side of the Pyrenean central ridge in Spain and Andorra. The scenic highlights of this region are almost unlimited - Val d'Aran, Sierra de Cadi, Vall Ferrera, Andorra, Val de Núria and especially the famous Aigüestortes i Estany de St. Maurici National Park are of special interest to nature lovers. Fabulous destinations for walks are to be found everywhere and mountain enthusiasts will be attracted to the steep limestone rock faces and granite peaks, the alpine pastures and luxuriant slopes blooming with flowers, the raging streams and countless mountain lakes. There are 50 walks selected in this guide that do justice to all the faces of this unique landscape and also take into account the various needs and capabilities of the hiker. Roger Büdeler, who has already written the Pyrenees 1 und 2 walking guides, also acquaints you in this third volume with the finest walks with detailed route descriptions from his adopted homeland. There is a map included with every walk and useful information concerning the starting point, grade, walking times and, of course, eating places and accommodation. Numerous photos display the Pyrenean mountain landscape in all its diversity.

Spain's "wild coast" is one of the most popular holiday spots on the Iberian Peninsula. In contrast to the other well-known, extensively-developed tourist regions, the Costa Brava remains relatively untouched. Of course, hotel high-rises, fenced-in beaches and spaghetti junctions have appeared here as well, but among them a profusion of unexploited pristine natural landscape has miles of coastal cliffs, bizarrely-formed mountains, and solitary beaches and bays with crystal-clear water.On the Costa Brava, a wide variety of landscapes merge together. In addition to walks directly on the rugged seaboard, along coastal cliffs high above the sea or descending to sheltered bays, the inland walking trails offer densely wooded mountain ridges climbing to sub-alpine heights, sheer-faced high plateaux, surreal rock formations and verdant volcanic domes. All of this is only a stone's throw from the seashore, and within easy reach of the seaside resorts and coastal beaches.Roger Büdeler has selected 50 very diverse walks, meant to satisfy every fancy and yearning for from the leisurely "camí de ronda" on the border between land and sea to challenging summit tours, from an ecological nature trail traversing a unique swampland to a rocky route incorporating some enjoyable scrambles. With a few exceptions, the suggested routes are easy to moderately difficult and are scheduled in time frames of half a day so that ample opportunity is given for additional exploration of the natural landscapes, scenery and culture of this area. 17 x 12 cm; colourful illustrations and detailed maps; soft cover.

Die "wilde Küste" Spaniens zählt zu den beliebtesten Urlaubszielen der Iberischen Halbinsel und bleibt von den typischen touristischen Entwicklungen weitgehend verschont. Trotz der Entstehung von großen Hotelanlagen und überfüllten Stränden gibt es hier noch unberührte Natur: kilometerlange Steilküsten, bizarre Berge und einsame Buchten mit klarem Wasser. Wandern an dieser Küste beschränkt sich nicht nur auf die malerischen Wege zwischen Portbou und Lloret de Mar, die direkt an der Felsküste verlaufen. Das bergige Hinterland bietet waldreiche Gebirgszüge, steil abfallende Hochplateaus und beeindruckende Felsformationen, alles in unmittelbarer Nähe zu den Stränden. Diese landschaftliche Vielfalt ist besonders attraktiv, da viele Wanderregionen auch geschützte Naturparks sind. Die Auswahl an Wanderrouten reicht von gemütlichen Küstenwegen bis hin zu anspruchsvollen Gipfeltouren und ökologischen Pfaden durch einzigartige Sumpflandschaften. Die meisten vorgeschlagenen Wanderungen sind leicht bis mittelschwer und dauern meist nur einen halben Tag, sodass genügend Zeit bleibt, um die Natur, Landschaft und Kultur weiter zu erkunden.
