The renowned guides from Rother Bergverlag are excellent hiking guides for all levels.
The hiking route is shown on a map, but is also described in concise and clear text; additionally, the distance, estimated walking time, difficulty level, elevation gain, and other practical information are also provided. Majorca is not only a holiday destination primarily for sun lovers, but also a true hiking paradise, with beautiful valleys, wild and romantic gorges, and countless panoramic summits, all set in the serene hinterland, away from the seasonally overcrowded coastlines.
Rolf Goetz, the author of this Rother hiking guide, is one of the foremost experts on the Spanish islands and has already made an excellent name for himself through his various publications. He presents hikers with a wide variety of suggestions for entertaining routes, focusing primarily on the wild and gorge-filled Serra de Tramuntana in the northwest, but also including other regions of the island.
This practical little hiking book, which opens up one of the most popular island hiking destinations in the Mediterranean region, offers 77 detailed route recommendations, generously illustrated with colour photos, colour map extracts, and elevation profiles. Each route is provided with complete GPS data, ready to download. Carefully documented introductory chapters with tips on points of interest and a bus timetable round off this excellent guide, which no traveller should be without.
