DESCRIPTION:
"Amazing Guide" according to Boguslaw P. Gorny. Excellent book, I am planning to use it in my 2 month trip from coast to coast next year. Lots of details important for serious as well as novice traveller. Author knows Pyrenees very well and makes this guide The best thing you may have with you during the hike. Excellent maps and beautiful photos.. "Good reference, but not 100% of what you might need." according to Amazon Customer. Good trail guide - could have more accommodation info and is getting somewhat dated. Used on the GR10 sections hike (Cauterets to Bagneres de Luchon) in September, 2015. Generally accurate, but having an accurate GPS track on your phone/tablet/Garmin/etc. very helpful in some sections - most importantly in towns where the author's directions can be a bit confusing especially on complex parts of the trail. As usual in Europe on the GR routes I've experienced, the problem is not finding the trail but selecting . shaun said Two Stars. It's out of date and very vague. Didn't help me at all.

GR10, the so-called Sentier des Pyr?n?es, is a walk of epic proportions, routed as it is along the north flank of a magical range of mountains. Unlike its counterpart on the Spanish slope, the GR10 actively seeks out a number of villages that lie snug at the foot of the mountains, so the long distance-walker can enjoy both the rugged heartland of the range and the more hospitable landscapes tended by a pastoral community.Having explored both sides of these mountains over a number of years, Paul Lucia has become something of an authority on - as well as great enthusiast for - the Pyrenees. That enthusiasm inspired his guide to the GR11 (Through the Spanish Pyrenees), which was first published by Cicerone in 1996 and is the hallmark of his approach to this present guide.. The 900km of footpath, lane and track-way which link the Atlantic coast with the Mediterranean have created one of the finest long-distance routes in France
