Sinopsis
This comprehensive guidebook offers a detailed stage-by-stage description along the Rhine, one of Europe's greatest rivers. On its way, The Rhine Cycle Route's dedicated cycle tracks pass the remains of Roman settlements, medieval towns, castles, cathedrals, palaces, great cities of the industrial revolution and relics of 20th-century warfare. Travelling through a range of stunning scenery, the route starts in the Swiss Alps, the river's ever-broadening course flowing north, occasionally passing through narrow rocky gorges, across lakes and alongside canals until reaching the North Sea at Hoek van Holland.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
Acerca del autor
Mike Wells is an author of both walking and cycling guides. He has been walking long-distance footpaths for 25 years, after a holiday in New Zealand gave him the long-distance walking bug. Within a few years, he had walked the major British trails, enjoying their range of terrain from straightforward downland tracks through to upland paths and challenging mountain routes. He then ventured into France, walking sections of the Grande Randonnee network (including the GR5 through the Alps from Lake Geneva to the Mediterranean), and Italy to explore the Dolomites Alta Via routes. Further afield, he has walked in Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Norway and Patagonia. Mike has also been a keen cyclist for over 20 years. After completing various UK Sustrans routes, such as Lon Las Cymru in Wales and the C2C route across northern England, he then moved on to cycling long-distance routes in continental Europe and beyond. These include cycling both the Camino and Ruta de la Plata to Santiago de la Compostela, a traverse of Cuba from end to end, a circumnavigation of Iceland and a trip across Lapland to the North Cape. He has written a series of cycling guides for Cicerone following the great rivers of Europe.
