The go-to Tatra Mountains travel guide for discovering the best walks and car tours. Strap on your boots and discover Tatra Mountains on foot with the Sunflower Tatra Mountains travel guide. And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours. The Sunflower Tatra Mountains guide is indispensable for hiking in the Tatra Mountains or seeing Tatra Mountains by car. For those who love mountain walks, there can be few places where hikers are better catered for than in the Polish Tatras and the Slovakian Tatras. Skilfully constructed paths make hiking in very rough terrain comparatively easy; signposting and waymarking are almost universally excellent. Hillwalkers will be in their element here, but there are often shorter, easy suggestions for the less hardy or they can create their own treks from the detailed maps in the book, which show all waymarked routes. In addition, those touring Slovakia or Poland by car will find that the tours lead to dozens of short walks and picnic spots, so that even those with little walking experience can make the most of these wonderful mountains. In each of the six national parks covered in the book you can look forward to sampling local drinks and dishes at one or more of the mountain inns. Walking in the national parks featured in this guide will undoubtedly be a very rewarding experience — the enjoyment of magnificent scenery and the excellent facilities for hikers, and perhaps also for successfully undertaking what may seem quite daunting walks in relatively high mountains. The experience can be rewarding on another level: being among people who are obviously enjoying themselves, who don’t seem to need an array of the latest outdoor fashions, and who are quietly proud of their mountain heritage. Whatever your age or ability we’ve got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in Tatra Mountains. Inside the Sunflower Tatra Mountains guide book you’ll find: 90 long and short walks for all ages and abilities – each walk is graded so you can easily match your ability to the level of walkTopographical walking maps – give you a clear sense of the surrounding terrainFree downloadable gps tracks – for the techiesSatnav guidance to walk starts for motorists 7 car tours and fold-out touring map – for easy reference on your tour Strolls to idyllic picnic spots – enjoy our recommendations for where to picnic along the wayTimetables for public transport – ideal if you want to link two walks or avoid hiring a car on your holidayOnline update service for the latest information Whether you tour the islands by car or explore on foot, we look forward to showing you around.
