Walking in Sardinia - one of my next guidebooks - is close to being published.
That means it's time for yet another FREE DRAW for a copy!
So what's Sardinia like? Well... until recently it had the reputation of being stunningly beautiful, abounding in interest, and desperately difficult to explore because so many paths and tracks would simply peter out in dense, thorny
macchia, miles from anywhere. It's all changed in the past year or two, and there are now lots of well-signposted and waymarked trails, so you can stride out confidently knowing that there's a way through. If you read the recent feature in TGO magazine, then you might want further details to help explore Sardinia. The forestry agency, which marked all the trails, have also produced, completely free of charge, excellent 1:25,000 maps. The routes in the book stretch from the astounding limestone cliffs of Ogliastra, through the barren Supramonte, to the broad whaleback mountains of Gennargentu. This encompasses some of the highest, wildest and most popular walking routes in Sardinia.
Check out the Cicerone website and click on all the links to learn more about the book. It currently shows as not available, but an advance copy is available for the draw. There is more information about the book on my website. Both sites contain a list of 50 routes around Sardinia, and there is plenty of information explaining how to make the most of the newly-created waymarked trails.
Here's the deal...
'terms and conditions' if you like...
1. Entry is open to all OutdoorsMagic members, but ONE ENTRY PER PERSON.
2. Entry is available until 20th October only through my website Enquiry Form.
3. You don't have to enter your 'real' name, your 'username' will do fine.
4. Give a valid email address, and I'll ask for your 'real' address only if you win.
5. Under the 'enquiry' field, just put 'Sardinia' so that all entries come together.
6. I hate spam, so I'm not going to spam you, and all emails will be deleted later.
7. The draw is entirely random, so everyone has the same chance to win.
8. The winner will be notified by email, and announced here on 21/10/11.
9. Yes, I'll sign the book, add an inscription if required, and post it to any UK address.
10. Overseas entries are welcome, but you'll have to contribute to the postage.
And that's enough 'terms and conditions', except for...
"I reserve the right to be wrong!"
This is intended as a 'fun' draw, so please don't take it too seriously. If it's 'fun' from my point of view, then I'll offer more books in due course as and when they're published.
Check out another FREE DRAW running parallel to this one... Walking on Tenerife.
GOOD LUCK!
