This guidebook describes 50 circular walks and scrambles exploring the Costa Blanca mountains, around the resorts of Alicante, Benidorm and Calp. These routes range from gentle strolls to demanding days with steep climbs, and from 3-20km in distance. The Mediterranean coast is one of Europe's most popular winter sun adventure destinations. In general UK visitors are best suited to the heat from late autumn to early spring. Beyond the beaches and high rises lies a completely different world of accessible, rocky mountains and knife-edge ridges that stretch away in long chains of gleaming white limestone pinnacles, and the range of walks ensures that everyone can enjoy this spectacular Spanish landscape. Walking on Costa Blanca also includes background information on local geology, wildlife and history, and planning details on where to go, where to stay and what to take.

Introduces 50 routes which include details of the cultural history and reveal culinary delights. This walking guide features a fact-file of the important information, a detailed walk description, a small map showing the line of the route and an easy-to-read height profile, for each walk introduced.

The Costa Blanca is ideal for countryside exploration all year round. The car tours lead through fertile valleys smothered in blossom or sweet-scented fruit to delightful inland villages. Windmills, water-falls and 'snow wells' feature among the picnic settings. But the rugged silhouettes of the area's many sierras dominate this landscape -- an irresistable attraction for walkers.
