Produktbeschreibung

There are few destinations in Europe where you can enjoy typical 'summer' outdoor pursuits in the middle of winter. However, Spain's Costa Blanca is one such place and the range and quality of activities on offer is outstanding. This multi-activity guide presents a handpicked selection of 60 ridge routes, via ferratas, canyons, sport-climbing crags, trad-climbing crags, hikes, trail runs and road-cycling routes to inspire keen adventurers to explore the region's striking ridges, peaks, crags and barrancos (canyons). A broad spectrum of activities is covered - although since many of the routes involve climbing skills and rope-work, the guide is particularly well suited to climbers interested in a multi-activity holiday - and there are plenty of mid-grade options.

Although quieter in winter, Costa Blanca is well served for accommodation and facilities, with easy access from Alicante. The guide includes plenty of useful information to help you plan your holiday and directions to help you locate the start-point for each activity. All of the activities are clearly graded and include route description and mapping and - for the climbing routes and via ferratas - photo topos illustrating the line of the route. Handy tables summarise the key information, making it easy to choose an activity to suit. With inspiring colour photography to whet your appetite, Costa Blanca Mountain Adventures is the perfect companion to discovering the adventures that await in this bounteous region.

Autorenporträt

Mark Eddy is a mountain guide and outdoor activity instructor living in the English Lake District. He began climbing in the early 1990s and has put up a number of first ascents in the UK and Spain. A fairly normal schooling in northern England led into mundane employment roles, none of which were satisfying. The quest for change began with an Open University course that soon became a degree focusing on Geography. This laid the initial foundations for more fulfilling work guiding in the mountains. Mark has been a regular visitor to south-east Spain for 30 years and is still discovering more of this wonderful place, always choosing the path less followed in the pursuit of adventure.
