Bergverlag Rudolf Rother Corsica 85 walks walking guide: 2019
Book SynopsisBizarre coastal cliffs, charming sandy bays, beautiful chestnut and pine forests, sparkling clean brooks, magical mountain lakes, summit destinations at over 2700 metres high, as well as predominantly unspoilt nature what other holiday destination in Europe can boast a similar offer? There is hardly another place where a walking and bathing holiday can be combined in such an ideal way as on this Mediterranean island. Among hikers and mountain climbers, Corsica is no longer a secret. The long-distance alpine hiking trail GR 20 is especially popular, and a few tours in this guide follow portions of that route. The undisputed highlight, however, are the towering peaks of the two-thousand metre mountains Monte Cinto, Monte Rotondo, Paglia Orba and Monte d'Oro, which place the breathtaking, small world of the Mountain Range in the Sea at the feet of hikers. But also nature lovers with less than alpine interests, and even die-hard Corsica fans will love this walking guide. Because, in addition to the main tourist routes, the author presents a number of less known walking options, from a beach walk to an adventurous cascade tour, to an easy panoramic summit. Most of these tours can be undertaken by families with children and elderly persons without difficulty. Lots of tips and information round out this well-executed walking guide and make it a must when travelling in the unique mountain landscape of Corsica. The above edition has been newly updated a proven, reliable companion for all expeditions and mountain tours on the Island of Beauty.

AS Verlag The Huts of the Swiss Alpine Club: Die Hutten Des
Book SynopsisThe history of the Swiss Alpine Club and the alpinists' first mountain huts go hand in hand - both first appearing in 1863. In 2013, 150 years later 'The Huts of the Swiss Alpine Club' has been published as a celebration of these icons of the Swiss mountain landscape. The huts now belong to the cultural heritage of the Swiss Alps and the mountains would seem incomplete without them. Today there are 152 SAC huts and they can be found high up on the Matterhorn or above the Glacier d'Otemma while others are lower down the mountains in green, grassy areas - each one has its own history. Nowadays they are used by alpinists, mountaineers, skiers and families. 'The Huts of the Swiss Alpine Club' celebrates the huts' diverse architecture and jaw dropping locations. This lavish book is a glossy, photographic record of these buildings. Background information is given for each and is accompanied by inspiring mountain photography. In addition the authors have provided an overview map, a short history, and appendices giving operational details of each hut and statistics and graphs.

Eshkol Publishing Ltd. Jesus Trail & Jerusalem - The Golan Trail: Two
Book SynopsisHiking the Jesus Trail is a once in a lifetime experience for every Christian. The Jesus Trail passes through Nazareth, Cana, the Mount of Beatitudes, the Sea of Galilee and Capernaum. You can continue hiking on the Israel National Trail and be baptized in the Jordan River, climb Mount Tabor and ascend Mount Precipice. The hike ends in Jerusalem. You will visit the Church of the Visitation, the Room of the Last Supper, Gethsemane, the Tomb of Mary, the Via Dolorosa and the Holy Sepulchre. Bethlehem is only ten kilometres from the trail. Pilgrims frequently describe their hike in the Holy Land as a life-altering experience. After their journey a group of pilgrims from Italy wrote: "When we completed the hike of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela - Way of St. James, we were excited.

Hermon 2,000 meters above sea level, and ends by the Sea of Galilee, 200 meters below sea level. You will hike on roads and alongside aqueducts built by the Romans. The region's basalt plateau is one of the largest in the world. The Golan trail is 130 km long, rich in fauna and flora. The best time to hike the trail is late winter and spring. Jacob Saar and Yagil Henkin are the authors of the original Israel National Trail guide. - The guide includes the only topographical maps of the region 1:50,000 in English. - Maps of Jerusalem 1:15,000. - Road maps 1:250,000. - Hike description with elevation charts. - Historical information about dozens of biblical and other sites. - Links to practical information about travel, accommodations, gear, forum and more.
