Recommended travel books for Andorra:


The Mountains of Andorra: Walks, Scrambles, Via Ferratas and Treks
Alf Robertson : Buy from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk

  • This is the first complete English-language guide to exploring the mountains of the accessible but mysterious country of Andorra, tucked away between France and Spain. With 80 mountain lakes and a host of elegant peaks the principality offers a breathtaking range of walks in a compact area.

The Rough Guide to The Pyrenees
Marc Dubin: Buy from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk

  • Anyone could find their perfect retreat in the Pyrenees, a range that encompasses in its four-hundred-kilometre length a diversity of landscapes rarely equalled in Europe. Between the balmy beaches of the Mediterranean and the more turbulent Atlantic coast lie regions of lush meadowland, peaks permanently clad in ice, sun-beaten canyons of sinuously sculpted rock, swathes of dense broadleaf forest, weirdly eroded limestone pinnacles and valleys so sheer and overgrown that scarcely a ray of light penetrates them.
