Landscapes of the Costa Blanca by John Oldfield

5 car tours, 50 long and short walks, 32 picnic suggestionsThe car tours and walks in this book are divided between six areas: the coastal strip from Denia to Benidorm, the Serpis and Gallinera valleys, the Laguart and Jalon valleys, the Guadalest, Algar and Sella valleys, the Alcoi area, and the sierras of Carrasqueta and Maigmo.The car tours lead through fertile valleys smothered in blossom or sweet-scented fruit to delightful inland villages.
