THE book that made walking on Madeira so popular. In print since 1981, with over half a million copies sold. Topographical walking maps (1:40,000), fold-out touring map. Timetables for local transport. Unique free on-line update service with specific route change information. Series (50 destinations) dubbed 'the blue Bibles' by the Sunday Times.
Now in its 10th edition, this is THE book that made walking on Madeira so popular. In print since 1981, with over half a million copies sold. Pocket-sized and in full colour, the guide describes six car tours (with fold-out touring map), highlighting places where you can stop for a walk or just a stroll to a lovely picnic setting. But the major part of the book is devoted to 100 different long and short walk routes, illustrated with large-scale topographical maps (1:40,000). While keen hillwalkers have long known about the island's mountainous terrain, what has attracted visitors of all ages and abilities is the opportunity to walk the 'levadas' - the paths beside the island's irrigation channels. The Sunday Times said: 'A remarkable paperback which may have done more than any other to change the way its readers spend their holidays; this book single-handedly turned levada-walking into something approaching a craze.'
