Walking and Trekking the Sierra Nevada

Walking & Trekking the Sierra Nevada was launched this month by Cicerone Press.

I was thrilled to meet Richard Hartley the author in Lanjaron earlier this month to hear about this new hiking book.

Walking Routes in Sierra Nevada

As an experienced mountaineer and guide Richard took time to write and document all the routes in the guidebook, With photos of the different hikes throughout the seasons.

This is a useful manual for anyone wanting to explore this fabulous region South of Granada.

As you may know the SIerra Nevada includes the Alpujarra Villages, the ski station and the Mulhacen mountain (highest on Iberian Peninsula) These contrasting landscapes create some very special walks.

These guidebooks make wonderful presents for ramblers and mountain enthusiasts.
