GR20: Corsica by Paddy Dillon
Guidebook to walking Corsica's GR20, known as the toughest GR route in Europe. It makes a complete traverse through the high mountains, sometimes with hands-on scrambling. Covering 190km, the GR20 can be completed by fit walkers in about two weeks. The guide includes high- and low-level alternatives, plus extra mountain climbs.
This is an unashamable plug for Paddy Dillion's bookIts really excellent! Even the foreigners we met were using it- as it is both more accurate and relevent than the alternatives. If you think its too heavy, as my ultra light nut thought, just do what he did and cut it up- but don't leave for the GR20 without it. Posted on www.Outdoorsmagic.com discussion site, July 2006 'Paddy provides everything to know before tackling the route.' Strider LDWA, August 2006 This book is not only a good book, but a down to earth practical book. Paddy gives you all the pre trek beta, and doesn't hide anything. The photos in the book are excellent and leave you in no doubt of the breathtaking scenery. The recent new maps are an excellent improvement and make its usage far easier than the previous edition (impartial feedback). The Aitchison-Jones Walker's Handbook 2007
