This guide describes 23 day routes, graded by a combination of distance, climb and overall gradient, all suitable for road bikes and illustrated by detailed maps and profiles. In addition a six-stage tour takes in all the highlights, including Grassington, Leyburn, Hawes, Kirkby Stephen, Ingleton and Settle. And for those who really want to test themselves, the route of the Stage 1 of the 2014 Tour de France, a 206km loop from Leeds to Harrogate, is also included, with an option to close the loop without adding many extra miles.
 
Appendices include a route summary table to help you choose your route, lots of information about facilities for cyclists along the routes, taking bikes on public transport and basic bike maintenance.
 
The Vuelta a Dales takes in the best dales, passes and viewpoints as it passes through Grassington, Leyburn, Hawes, Kirkby Stephen, Sedbergh, Ingleton and Settle.

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.

Im Kanarischen Archipel ist Fuerteventura die Bade- und Surfinsel schlechthin. Keine andere der Nachbarinseln kann es in puncto Strände mit ihr aufnehmen. Abseits der Küste ist das Hinterland fast menschenleer – das wissen vor allem Naturfreunde und Wanderer zu schätzen. Und das Schöne ist, dass Bade- und Wanderferien ideal miteinander verknüpft werden können. Der Rother Wanderführer »Fuerteventura« stellt 40 schöne Küsten- und Bergwanderungen vor.

Bizarre Steilküsten, weitläufige Strände und Dünenlandschaften – mit Blick auf das blau glitzernde Meer lassen sich stundenlange Exkursionen unternehmen. Das ursprüngliche Hinterland hält mit grünen Palmenoasen, Kapellen und Windmühlen lohnende Ziele bereit. Und natürlich gibt es auch etliche Panoramagipfel zu erklimmen, etwa den von den Ureinwohnern als heilig verehrten Montaña Tindaya oder den Vulkankrater Calderón Hondo im ausgebrannten Lavafeld von Lajares.

Jede Tour wird mit einer übersichtlichen Kurzinfo mit allen wichtigen Angaben, einer detaillierten Karte, einem aussagekräftigen Höhenprofil und einer präzisen Wegbeschreibung vorgestellt. Auch schöne Badeplätze, Einkehrmöglichkeiten und Wegvarianten werden verraten. Zu allen Touren stehen außerdem GPS-Daten zum Download von der Internetseite des Bergverlag Rother zur Verfügung.

This Marco Polo map features really easy to read cartography. Topography is highlighted with relief shading and loads of spot heights and the road network is clearly shown with roads ranging from motorways all the way through to minor secondary roads. The map also clearly indicates airports, places of interest, scenic/tourist routes, view points etc.
 
The map includes a booklet attached to the cover that contains some useful information and a very extensive index that covers locations, places of interest and geographical features. Also included are a distance/driving time chart and a fold out flap on the cover with an overview map of the region covered.
 
A unique feature of the Marco Polo maps is "mark it" stickers, a set of seven reusable stickers (ie they don't damage the map when removed and placed elsewhere) that can be used to highlight interesting places, the route you plan to take (to make navigation easier), or whatever you want really.
 
The legend is in a multitude of languages including English.
