Go to Lanzarote
 Sunflower Landscapes of Lanzarote by Noel RochfordFrom the Sunflower Landscapes Guides series. Few holidaymakers realise that Lanzarote has more to offer than just beaches and sunshine. This fascinating island is truly extraordinary. Its fate was decided some two and one-half centuries ago, when the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history took place, leaving a strange and alluring countryside in its wake ? a landscape littered with volcanoes and dark streams of jagged lava. This is the backdrop to nearly every scene on the island, and intriguing sights abound ? none more so than the 'Fire Mountains'. There is no better place in the Canary Islands for just strolling. No doubt 'serious' walkers will find other islands more challenging, but ramblers will be in their element on Lanzarote. Each of the walks in this book takes you to a different corner of the island and shows you a scenically-different outlook. But if walking is not your favourite pastime, then do rent a vehicle of sorts and explore on wheels. Includes a day-trip to the neighbouring island of Fuerteventura. Best time of year for walking: October to June 3 car tours, 40 long and short walks, 15 picnic suggestions Plans of Arrecife, Puerto del Carmen, Playa Blanca, and Corralejo (Fuerteventura) 128 pages + 2 touring maps s (Lanzarote and northern Fuerteventura) Paperback 128 pages - 4" x 8 1/4" - 4th edition (2/07)
