Walking in France: Exploring France's Great Towns and Finest Landscapes on Foot Book

The authors, who back up their text with well-composed maps and hundreds of photographs taken en route, give clear and practical advice for those inclined toward a stroll or two as well as for experienced walkers. The day walks offer rural routes (including the Loire Valley, Brittany, Normandy and Corsica) as well as city walks in such places as Paris and Marseille, and include open hours for sightseeing stops, advice on transportation and refreshment, and such very practical advice as when and where to look out for people with guns during hunting season. The authors take good advantage of France's extensive network of walking clubs and walking facilities. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
