Book Review

Corsica Walking Guide

by Klaus Wolfsberger
Translated by Tom Krupp
Cordee 2002 ISBN 3-7633-4819-0, Price £8.99

 

 

This compact, plastic covered guide-book is a very good aid to selecting walking routes all over Corsica. We used it at Calvi and later from Corte and Porto, it has 127 inspiring colour photos, 56 walking maps at 1:50,000 and 1:75,000 and 3 overview maps. There are easy, medium and longer, more grueling suggestions. ft took us to a beautiful headland, Capu Rossu, a long winding, scenic gorge, Tavignano, high lakes and peaks, Lacs Melo and Capitello and a series of cataracts, Cascades des Anglais. It was really useful. As always, local maps are advised too.
