Whether you're looking for easy day strolls among vineyards and olive groves, multi-day adventures in the Alps, or the thrill of the challenging vie ferrate (iron ways), this guide will walk you through Italy's wealth of natural beauty, history and culture. In This Guide: Everything you need to know to get prepared. Listings for sleeping, eating and facilities along the way. Advice on equipment, health and safety.

作者简介
  Hailing originally from Andover in Hampshire, BrendanSainsbury left England in the mid 1990s and never really went home.In between penning travel anecdotes, he has hitch-hiked acrossAfrica, taught English in Thailand, dug latrines in Angola, andworked as an itinerant tour guide in Spain, Morocco, Cuba andGreece. A one-time health club manager and marathon runner, Brendanfinally waved goodbye to the burgeoning fitness industry in early2000 to go off to work as a volunteer teacher in war-torn Angola.Unfazed by life in the African bush, he did his bit forAnglo-Angolan relations by rebuilding a shot-up library, surveyinga local refugee camp, and directing a Portuguese version ofShakespeare's A Comedy of Errors to an audience of bemused localvillagers. Stumped for career options on his return to Europe,Brendan spent three months wandering around South America beforelaying tentative roots in France where he bought a rundown ruralhouse in between making regular forays to and from the localpatisserie. In January 2004 he resurfaced once again in Vancouver,Canada after marrying a Canuck he had impressed with his Flamencoguitar-playing whilst guiding in Spain.Confident in Spanish andslightly less confident in Portuguese, Brendan remains foreverfascinated by Latin America. Aside from traveling, his mainpassions include running up steep hills, playing Flamenco guitar,re-evaluating old Clash records and following the trials andtribulations of Southampton football club.Credits in a precariousfreelance writing career include The Australian, Africa Geographic,The Ecologist, The Boston Herald and The Vancouver Sun. Althoughmodest by some yardsticks, it was enough to attract the interest ofLonely Planet.Travel Tip: Always travel with a musical instrument.Favourite Place in the World: Havana, Cuba.
