Hemsedal er Norges skibygd nummer 1, og det beste er verken skiheisene eller langrennsløypene, men alle toppene du kan nå ved å gå opp for egen maskin. I guideboka Toppturer i Hemsedal viser tindevegleder Jørgen Aamot vei til 42 topper og mer enn 100 nedfarter øverst i Hallingdalen.

Fjellbygda Hemsedal, der øst møter vest i Norge, har alt en skientusiast kan ønske seg, og boken viser fram hemmelighetene. Her finner du alt fra nybegynnervennlige turer i lett terreng, til bratte snørenner forbeholdt eksperter. Klassikere som Nibbi og Svarthetta er grundig dekket, men her finner du også tips til mindre kjente fjell som vanligvis har få spor. I tillegg til toppturene, presenterer boka tredagersturen Hemsedalsruta. 

Toppturer i Hemsedal viser turmulighetene i skibygda på en måte som aldri er gjort tidligere, med rutene tegnet inn på oversiktsbilder og turkart. Alle rutene har terrengklassifisering, noe som gjør det enkelt å velge tur etter vær- og snøforhold, ferdigheter og ambisjonsnivå.

Boka har flotte skibilder fra fotografer som har Hemsedal som sitt skiområde. Toppturer i Hemsedal inneholder også spennende tilbakeblikk på tidligere tiders skiferdsel i ei fjellbygd der ski har vært sentralt i både lek og arbeid i århundrer.

The go-to La Palma and El Hierro travel guide for discovering the best walks and car tours. Strap on your boots and discover La Palma and El Hierro on foot with the Sunflower La Palma and El Hierro travel guide. And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours.

The Sunflower La Palma and El Hierro guide is indispensable for hiking in La Palma and El Hierro or seeing La Palma and El Hierro by car. El Hierro, the least-visited of all the Canaries, at first appears to be a dried-up, sprawling mountain of rock, rising straight from the sea, treeless and barren. But Noel reveals the island's hidden charms - as remarkable as any in the archipelago.

In natural beauty, La Palma rivals all the other Canary Islands put together. Its immense, abyss-like crater, the Caldera de Taburiente, is considered to be the largest of its kind in the world. Outside the crater, high on the cloud-catching hillsides, 20 million-year-old laurel forests grow as dense as a jungle.

But in recent years most walkers are exploring the 'far west' - the Akamas Peninsula, now a nature reserve, where the Tourism Organisation has established some fine nature trails. In all, there are 52 nature trails on the island, some short and easy, others very demanding. Area covered: Greek (southern) Cyprus; North Cyprus is not included, except on the touring map (where place names are shown in Turkish).

Expert railway enthusiast Ben Le Vay returns with a new edition of his much-acclaimed guide to discovering Britain from the rails. This latest edition adds new lines and destinations in Britain's fast-changing railway, while updating the guide to the classic greats. Thoroughly updated, it includes a full, fascinating guide to the new Borders Railway in Scotland, plus details of the new route from London to Oxford and expanded coverage of the eccentric Jolly Fisherman line in Lincolnshire and the charming Cotswold line from Oxford to Hereford.

Also included are more details of the Far North line from Inverness to Wick and Thurso. 'Now, finally, the network has a book to be proud of!' So said one reviewer of the first edition. Branch lines and 'secret railways' are covered, and so too are the popular routes such as the glorious East Coast main line to Scotland and the Great Western to Penzance.

Regional treats include the famed West Highland Line in Scotland, the Settle and Carlisle railway in the north of England, and entire chapters dedicated to 'Wales Rails' and 'East Anglia: A Circular Tour'. Additional information ranges from the practical - such as a guide to the layout of some of the country's main termini - to the 'Inside Track: a window-gazer's guide to stuff to look out for on your journey' and intriguing train trivia. The best historic and preserved railways are also included, as are Ben's Top Ten Rail Journeys.

This thoroughly updated fourth edition of Bradt's Lapland is the only standalone guidebook in English to this wintry wonderland, a region spanning the northernmost fringes of Norway, Sweden and Finland where there are as many reindeer as people, it never gets dark in summer and never gets light in mid-winter. In this new edition, expert author James Proctor covers all the latest developments, including the most up-to-date information on where to see the Northern Lights (Lapland is the best region in the world for Northern Lights viewing) and where to go husky sledding, reviews of the treehouse hotels which have sprung up across the region, the latest details of how to fly directly to one of the Europe's most far-flung destinations from the UK and USA, plus information on a wide range of summer and winter adventures, from hiking and wild swimming to snowmobiling, wilderness stays and staying in the Icehotel. Everybody has heard of Lapland.

Everybody knows it's the home of Father Christmas. Yet remarkably few people can accurately pinpoint Lapland on a map. Bradt's Lapland lifts the lid off this little-known, enigmatic region and shows that there's much more to Lapland than the man with the long white beard and the red suit.

This is a land of elemental beauty with plenty to offer anyone who's looking to explore the great outdoors without the great crowds. Lapland is vast and empty, a place of indigenous villages, sweeping forests, mighty waterfalls - the raw side of nature here is the region's defining and inescapable characteristic and no visit is complete without leaving the creature comforts of the nearest town well behind. Whether on an organized tour or travelling independently, Bradt's Lapland is the essential travel companion.
