This comprehensive guidebook to the GR11 trail, which runs 820km from
the Atlantic to the Mediterranean, provides everything trekkers will
need to take up the challenge - detailed route description, excellent
photographs, lots of background information and unique custom-produced
maps. This glorious traverse of the Pyrenees, on the Spanish side, is a
serious challenge - passing over a succession of high alpine passes
where boulderfields, scree slopes and occasional snowfields may need to
be crossed. It is presented in 47 stages of 8-31km.
It is well waymarked and has regular opportunities to top up on food and
drink, described within the routes and in a detailed place-by-place
appendix at the back. Also included are bad weather options - although
the weather is often good along this route - detours to find
accommodation at some points, and advice on where to stay, supplies,
language and logistics, as well as a glossary including Aragon, Basque
and Catalan words, to help you find your way.
