Reise Know-How is een duitstalige praktische reisgids voor alle leeftijden, boordevol informatie over accommodatie van budget tot luxe, vervoer en plaatsbeschrijvingen - kenmerk : brede cultuur en achtergrondinformatie, bondig geschreven.

Burgen und Schlösser, Radler und Wanderer, Kirchen und Klöster, Schinken und Schnaps –

das Münsterland hat’s. Und das alles eingebettet in eine wunderbare Parklandschaft,

einem Wechsel aus Äckern und Wiesen, mit Wald und Weiden, durchzogen von Flüssen

und Bächen. Das Münsterland liegt im Herzen der Westfälischen Bucht, grenzt an die

Niederlande, die Ausläufer des Bergischen Landes, an den Teutoburger Wald und öffnet sich

im Norden zur Norddeutschen Tiefebene. Dabei ist das Land keineswegs nur „platt“.

Durchzogen von den Baumbergen und den Beckumer Bergen kann die leicht hügelige

Landschaft mit dem Fahrrad durchstreift werden – von Wasserburg zu Wasserburg,

die prägend für die Geschichte und das heutige Erscheinungsbild des Münsterlandes sind!

Münster selbst, die fahrradfreundliche Studentenstadt, vereint Tradition und Moderne,

westfälische Gemütlichkeit und quirliges Stadtleben.

Vielleicht ist es das Fehlen beeindruckender Kathedralen, vielleicht ist es die manchmal unwirtliche, aber gerade deshalb berührend schöne Landschaft, oder sind es die Gebirgspässe und Hochplateaus von Asturien und Galicien, die den Camino Primitivo zum Geheimtipp unter den Pilgern gemacht haben. Zweifellos stellt er höhere physische Anforderungen an den Pilger, aber wer authentische Pilgererfahrung auf (noch) einsamen uralten Wegen sucht, findet sie auf den 310 Kilometern des Camino Primitivo, in seinen winzigen Kapellen und in den Resten seiner mittelalterlichen Hospize, wo wir so deutlich wie kaum anderswo den Geist der Pilger von bald 1200 Jahren Jakobsweggeschichte verspüren...

This guide describes three treks, between 5 and 8 days, in the Silvretta and Rätikon Alps starting near Klosters, and 12 half-day hut-to-hut routes. These contrasting ranges form a line on the borders of Switzerland, Austria and Liechtenstein. The Tour of the Silvretta, the Prättigauer Höhenweg and the Rätikon Höhenweg.

Straddling the borders of Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, the limestone Rätikon Alps reach into the snow-bound and glacier-hung Silvretta Alps to provide a richly diverse series of landscapes. The Tour of the Silvretta, the Prättigauer Höhenweg and the Rätikon Höhenweg, all within easy reach of Klosters, have been devised to help trekkers explore the best of the region. Given sifficient time they can also be combined to create a continuous 2-week tour.

The Silvretta and Rätikon may stand together, but their geology and landscapes are vastly different. Together, they feature picturesque alpine villages, a large selection of mountain huts and a range of walkers' passes to provide excellent trekking.

This guide describes all three treks, step by step, as well as 12 short routes linking some of the area’s most idyllically-located huts, for those who prefer to plan their own tours.

A Tour of the Silvretta Alps - this fairly strenuous hut-to-hut tour makes a counter-clockwise circuit of the Silvretta Alps over the course of about a week. With magnificent scenery throughout, there are several rugged passes to negotiate and a number of beautiful valleys to wander through.

The Prattigauer Hohenweg - a medium-grade multi-day route that works its way along the south flank of the Silvretta and Ratikon mountains between Klosters and Landquart. This very fine trek is demanding in places, but it rewards with numerous memorable views especially of the abrupt walls of the Ratikon mountains.

The Ratikon Hohenweg - the Ratikon Hohenweg Nord runs along the Austrian flank of the mountains, while a roughly parallel route known at the Ratikon Hohenweg Sud takes a similar course on the Swiss flank. By linking them at either end of the mountain range, a first class hut-to-hut circuit can be achieved.

Along with detailed route descriptions, maps, information on travel to and around the area, practical tips on equipment and trekking logistics, as well as details on climbable peaks and points of interest, are all included.

3 treks between 5 and 8 days long, suitable for moderately experienced trekkers, with optional side excursions to climb nearby peaks

12 full- or half-day hut-to-hut routes

includes a hut directory with full information about all the mountain huts in the region, as well as language notes and recommended pre-holiday reading

So, what is so special about the Tracks4Africa guide books? These are not guides written by armchair travellers or the personal experience of one person, but the combined experiences of a whole community of travellers. The T4A community travel far and wide – not by luxury bus or safari vehicle but on their own wheels. Sometimes they travel in groups and sometimes as lone rangers, but they always travel by motorbike, sedan or 4WD, therefore this guide is specifically aimed at self-drive travellers.

If you are a self-drive tourist, there are five things that you need to know when you are on the road:

1. Where to sleep.

2. Where to get fuel.

3. What to see and do.

4. Where to buy supplies.

5. Where to go in case of an emergency.

If you have the Tracks4Africa Self-Drive Guide as your travel companion, the answers to all these and many more questions will be at hand. If you are well prepared and well informed, you can really enjoy the unspoilt beauty of Africa! The Tracks4Africa travel community has shared with you the places and attractions that they really love to visit time and time again.

So what is new in the second edition?

Our first editions of the self-drive guide books were well received by travellers, but we needed to update our content and we wanted to add in a few extras.

The new books have migrated from A5 to A4 in size. This was done to make space for the new atlas section which features detailed country maps at a scale of 1:1million. The cartography was taken directly from our very popular Tracks4Africa Southern Africa Atlas and we believe that this puts our guide books in a league of their own.

We also had many requests for trip planning and decided to include two suggested itineraries for first time visitors. If you never visited any of these two countries we will give you a great trip plan with map and descriptions as inspiration. For seasoned travellers we retain the detailed information on each destination so they can create DIY trips.

Accommodation and camping were all updated to reflect the latest facilities and contact details and if we could not get hold of a place it did not make it into the book. For community campsites we made mention where we could not update the content, but left them in the book for you to explore.

The two books are again printed on high quality paper and bound in a glossy semi-hard cover which allows you to fold it open without the risk of it breaking up at the seam. We used the same method with our first editions and found that this provides a quality product which is sturdy enough to withstand being used inside the car while travelling.

The two books were edited by none other than Neil Harrison who spend many years as the editor of SA4x4. Neil brings with him a wealth of publication knowledge.

Content covered in the Self-Drive Guides:

General information about each country; Safety and precaution; Trip planning; Navigation; Preparing your vehicle for overland travel; Communication; Border post red tape; Veterinary fences and Foot-and-mouth disease; Health; Pitfalls to renting a 4×4 with camping equipment; Things you should not go without.

For both guides the table of distance does not only feature distances between towns, but also travel times. Reliable travel times are a unique feature for which Tracks4Africa is well known and is essential information when travelling in Africa.

IN EEN LAND HIER VER VANDAAN... bevat vijftig verhalen over plekken die de wereld zo bijzonder maken.
