📗 Libro en inglés GOMERA (ROTHER WALKING GUIDE)

PB, Rother Walking Guide, 160pp, walking guides are pocket-sized (115 x 165 mm), in full colour and include 50 walks, varying from day-long hikes, mountain and valley walks, some easy some more demanding. Each walk has accompanying mapping, usually 1:50 000 and colour photos capture the ''feel'' of each of the countries. This is a guide of La Gomera, second smallest of Spain’s seven Canary Islands. La Gomera can be considered the wildest of the Canary Islands. From the central highlands of the almost 1500-metre high island, countless, steep-walled gorges wind down to the sea, slicing the otherwise gently sloping island coast like a cake. La Gomera is made for nature-loving walkers, and offers an incredible variety in its countryside. Idyllic valleys with terraced fields and palm groves stand in contrast to precipitous cliffs and spectacular gorges; the magical laurel forests of Garajonay National Park are countered by pine forests and banana plantations. This Rother Walking Guide presents the hiker with a wide variety of entertaining tour recommendations encompassing all regions of Gomera.
