Norge på tvers er en unik ekspedisjonsopplevelse på 120 kilometer, fordelt på 7 dagsetapper gjennom fjellområdet Sylan. Turen følger turistforeningens merkede ruter langs 63 grader nord med overnatting på betjente og selvbetjente DNT-hytter. Dette kartbladet dekker hele strekningen fra fjorden i Stjørdal til svenskegrensen i Tydal med kart på både for- og baksiden. En av godbitene på turen er det mektige Sylmassivet lengst øst i Trøndelag. Den høyeste toppen, Storsylen (1762 moh.), ligger så vidt på norsk side av svenskegrensa.

Norge på tvers-kartet er utgitt av Calazo i samarbeid med Trondhjems Turistforening og Nord-Trøndelag Turistforening. Dette er en del av en moderne kartserie der terrenginformasjonen er basert på laserskanning fra fly. Kartet er laget i materialet Tyvek, som tåler vann, er beskyttet mot rifter og har lav vekt.

Volume II of Skiing Around the World has been 14 years in the making. It is all new material, with more than 600 pages of stories and photos. The major ski countries of the world, like Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France, Sweden, Norway, USA, and Canada all have new chapters that cover different resorts than in Volume I, while 25 new countries have also been added to Jimmy’s ski odyssey.

This book will give you new ideas and dreams that will inspire your ski-travel plans for years to come. Whether you want to learn of a hidden gem in the Alps, prefer to do a ski road trip through Greece or Turkey, or hike up for a few unforgettable turns in Mongolia, you can learn about it here.

It includes all new photos (more than 1100) and written material about ski locations that were not included in Volume I. It includes chapters about more than 20 countries that were not included in Volume I and it has new chapters on the major ski countries that cover different ski resorts than those in Volume I. For example, the chapter on Austria in Volume I included sections on Saalbach, St. Anton, Sölden, Innsbruck, Bad Gastein, the Pitztal, Nauders, and the Zillertal. The chapter on Austria in Volume II includes sections about Kitzbühel, the Krippenstein, Dachstein West, Altaussee, Tauplitz, the Montafon Valley, Ischgl and the Paznaun Valley.

As in Volume I, this all-new book includes famous ski resorts, insider tips about powder havens that few people have discovered, and exotic locations that even the most avid skiers have probably never dreamed of skiing. In Volume II, you can read about household names like Kitzbühel, Aspen, or La Plagne, you can discover little known pearls like Røldal in Norway, Glencoe, Scotland, and Cerler in Spain, and you can enjoy adventures on skis in exotic destinations like Venezuela, Uganda, and Kamchatka.

Thoroughly updated for this new third edition, Bradt's World War I Battlefields remains the only compact practical travel guide to cover both French and Belgian battlefield sites involved in one of the deadliest conflicts in human history, which changed the face of foreign policy and European geography forever. The 2014-18 centenary of the First World War was a huge catalyst for battlefield tourism, leading to a proliferation of innovative new museums, memorials, commemorative trails, statues and more - which are comprehensively covered in this update. Co-authored by two award-winning travel writers, this lightweight and pocket-friendly guidebook is perfect for visitors.

It covers all the main sites, memorials and museums of the entire Western Front alongside practical information such as travelling there and getting around, and how to book the best guided tours. In the Belgian section of the book, chapters cover Ypres and the Ypres Salient; Poperinge, Heuvelland and Messines (Mesen); Diksmuide, Veurne and Nieuwpoort; and Mons. In the French section, as well as the Somme, battlefields in Le Nord and Lille are featured, as are those in Pas-de-Calais; Aisne; and Marne, Champagne and Verdun.

Visiting well-known Somme sights - such as Thiepval, the Somme 1916 Museum, Longueval, Le Hamel and Villers-Bretonneux - is a must for many visitors. But so, too, are Arras and the information centre dedicated to the Battle of Vimy Ridge, the Battle of Fromelles Museum, the Cambrai Tank 1917 museum, the Marne 14-18 Interpretation Centre, and the Sir John Monash Centre, which tells the story of Australian soldiers' Western Front experiences in both countries. This updated and expanded edition features new information on the valuable contribution made by Black, Indian and Caribbean soldiers.

There is also refreshed, detailed advice on how to find the resting place of family members lost in battle. For history buffs, those on battlefield tours, relatives of those who fought, school groups and students, there is no finer guidebook to visiting Great War sites in both countries than Bradt's World War I Battlefields.
