Coffee Table Book – Adventures Around the World | Lonely Planet
In the footsteps of Anthony Verlaine, specialist in non-motorized adventures
The book brings together around fifty adventures in as many countries. At all levels! To make everyone want to take the plunge and travel in outdoor mode.
Trips that take their time to fully discover nature and appreciate the landscapes crossed. Such as the discovery of the high plateaus of Lesotho on horseback, the descent of the Nile in a felucca or the crossing of Portugal by bike.
But also adventures that have the flavor of real expeditions: spending two weeks in a canoe to go down the Yukon, in the heart of wild Canada; crossing the Wadi Rum desert on foot to Petra; reaching the Peak Pike from Kathmandu by mountain bike; putting on your touring skis for a week to reach Zermatt from Chamonix…
An inspiring, richly illustrated guide, with a map for each adventure, lots of practical advice on roaming and bivouacking, and essential information (best season, duration, difficulty, etc.).
