"This pocket-size full colour guide covers car tours, walks and picnic in the entire range - France, Spain and Andorra.

There are well over 400 kilometres (250 miles) of walks in this guide, the equivalent of a coast-to-coast traverse - one of the 'classics' for all serious walkers.

But you don't have to be an expert walker for any of hikes we describe.

None of them requires special skills (under summer conditions), and there are short walk suggestions with most of the itineraries).

Experienced and fit walkers will nevertheless find much to enjoy, for we have included some of the wildest scenery in the Pyrenees, walked pilgrim routes and World War 2 escape routes, climbed to summits (like Canigou), enjoyed the habitat of marmots, vultures and lizards (the Pyrenean chamois), and not neglected the great and the famous (like the Breche de Roland).

Touring maps covering the entire range; 1:50,000 topo maps for the walks.

Public transport information; online update service for the latest information.
