The Sunflower Pyrenees guide is indispensable for hiking in the Pyrenees or seeing the Pyrenees by car. You don’t have to be an expert to enjoy trekking in the Pyrenees with this guide book. None of the hikes requires special skills under summer conditions and, if you are not very fit, simply turn back when you feel like it (although there are also specific short walk suggestions with most of the itineraries). Nevertheless, the authors, who have lived in the Pyrenees for 30 years, believe that “experienced and fit walkers will find much to enjoy, for we have included some of the wildest scenery in the Pyrenees, walked pilgrim routes and World War 2 escape routes, climbed to summits (like Canigou), enjoyed the habitat of marmots, vultures and lizards (the Pyrenean chamois), and not neglected the great and the famous (like the Breche de Roland)”. Paul and Christine have also written the Rough Guide to the Pyrenees (1st ed) and the Berlitz Explorer guide to the Pyrenees.
