From the Author
Rough Guide Pyrenees is indeed a general touring guide
Contrary to received opinion, the Rough Guide to the Pyrenees is indeed aimed at the mainstream tourist, though inevitably it focuses on mountain attractions. There are plenty of descriptions of easy day-walks, as well as multi-day treks. I have chosen not to provide topographic, contoured hiking maps because specialist products of this sort are easily available in France and Spain - in the front matter and "Books" sections loads of them are recommended. Also highlighted are the various opportunities for skiing, caving, river-rafting and canyoning,along with the usual Rough Guide features: a piece on wildlife, complete festival calendars for each region, a history account tailored to the mountains. For people who want a break at the nearest seaside after time in the hills, there is extensive coverage of the northern Costa Brava, French resorts in Languedoc-Roussillon, and the Basque Coast on both sides of the border, with town plans for any place of size (not usually a problem at higher altitudes). Most of the destinations covered are unique to this guide, and appear nowhere else in English. Moreover, for the upcoming edition (being researched March-July 2000, out April 2001), watch for an extra special region in Spain, well known already to French and Spanish but never before profiled in English!
