Best Short Nature Walks

Description

The highly successful inveterate tramper, Peter Janssen presents 200 short nature walks in New Zealand that are ideal for those people who like to stretch their legs without having to tackle a full tramp. Best Short Nature Walks has informative ‘nature notes’ walkers. They can identify some of the country’s more intriguing flora and fauna as they discover the natural beauty of New Zealand’s outstanding scenery and unique landforms. The walks are grouped by region, and each can be accomplished within the span of a couple of hours (and some much less), putting them well within the grasp of most walkers. A short introduction to the book gives information on bush safety, practical considerations and information on how to consult the entries.

Each walk includes:

• short summary
• location detail
• grade and time to complete the walk
• Full track notes
• Regional maps
