Holiday Walks in Mallorca, Graham Beech - Here is a new side to Mallorca - an escape from the crowds. The diverse walks included will enable the rambler to discover rural traditions and explore quiet villages. The variety of scenery on this island is stunning - one can enjoy views from below and on top of magnificent mountains, or combine a coastal walk with a refreshing dip in the sea. As well as the presence of this blue Mediterranean backdrop, there are country strolls amid olive groves to be enjoyed, and more demanding rambles in the mountainous north-west of this dramatic island. Thoroughly researched with bags of background and historic information, the book also offers practical advice for walkers unfamiliar with Mallorcan access rights. Each walk is provided with not just a set of instructions but many pointers to interesting sights to be appreciated.

Walking in Mallorca, June Parker and Paddy Dillon - "Walking in Mallorca" quickly established itself as the most comprehensive guidebook to the island, with particular emphasis on the rugged Serra de Tramuntana.

This book will entice walkers well off the beaten track, enabling them to explore the most diverse terrain around the island. Rugged mountain walks contrast with remote valleys, while waymarked trails give way to long-forgotten mule tracks and hidden mountain passes. Some walks run close to breathtaking cliff coastlines, while others pass through sleepy villages where welcome refreshment can be obtained.

Mallorca (Walk & Eat), Valerie Crespi-Green - This pocket-sized full-colour guide is designed for short-break holidays on Mallorca with a gastronomic touch. Even if you're not a walker, it's worth having just for the restaurant suggestions, the excursions and the information about local food.The book describes two excursions for all-comers (including the 'wild west' train to Soller and boat trip along the north coast), plus 10 easy to fairly strenuous walks, all illustrated with 1:35,000 topographical maps. Each excursion or walk recommends at least one restaurant en route serving local cuisine, with photograph, price guide, opening times, sample menus, and recipes for some of their specialities. Other sections include: planning your trip, getting about, food shopping (including health foods and local markets), glossary of food terms and restaurant mini-vocabulary. A special feature is the emphasis on natural local foods suitable for those with food intolerances. All recipes have been made by the authors and are known to 'work'. On-line updates keep readers abreast of route/restaurant changes.

Mallorca (Landscapes), Valerie Crespi-Green - This is one of the books that won Sunflower Books the Sunday Times 'Oscar' for best guide book publisher and since 1984 the most widely-used walking guide for Mallorca. It was the first walking guide for Mallorca, published when the island had a reputation as a haven for 'larger louts'. Sunflower's author knew better, and Mallorca is now one of the most popular walking areas in Europe (and a favourite destination for bird-watchers, too). This completely revised sixth edition updates the routes and maps to reflect changes since the previous edition was published. Whatever your age or hiking abilities, there's something here for you - from coastal strolls to extremely challenging climbs and descents. Car tours and picnic suggestions are included, as are timetables for public transport.

Menorca (Landscapes Countryside Guides) - Menorca is the island people fall in love with ... the one they go back to year after year, the island where they go to retire. And no wonder. For in addition to all the normal attractions you expect from a holiday island-lively resorts, good safe beaches, day-long sunshine, splendid restaurants-Menorca has something special. Such as dozens of lovely untouched beaches and a gorgeous countryside. And, as if that were not enough, it has the densest concentration of prehistoric monuments in Europe. Although only small, much of the island is isolated and, without the help this book provides, difficult for the visitor to penetrate. Two days' motoring will enable you to see most of that part of the island which is accessible by car (by no means all of it). As for the rest, it is gentle walking country, and the remoter regions are best explored on foot or by bicycle.

Ibiza and Formentera (Landscapes) - Until the sixties, Ibiza belonged to the Ibizans, and only a few artists, poets and writers lived in this paradise. Then the flower-children arrived, the hippies and drop-outs. In the last 30 years however, mass tourism has taken over and unfortunately destroyed much of the charm of Ibiza and Formentera. But not everything on the islands has been spoiled. 'Bed and burgerbar' building has reached saturation point, and a visit to the pine islands' (the 'Pityussae', as the Greeks called them) is still worthwhile today. There's an unending wealth of hidden beauty spots to be discovered, and this new edition of the book helps you to find the best of Ibiza and Formentera, whether you travel by car, bicycle, or on foot.
