connurbations. Walks are described throughout the length and breadth of La Gomera, while for Tenerife there are walks in the south, within easy reach of the ferry. All walks are illustrated with 1:50,000 topo maps and all were rewalked six months prior to publication of this new edition. All ‘official’ signposted and waymarked government trails have been highlighted and numbered on the walking maps – a real plus: if a walker comes across a signpost for a route not fully described in Noel’s text, it can still be used as a short- (or long-!)cut.
