Still free from mass tourism, the archipelago, belonging to Portugal, is a Mecca for nature-lovers and walkers. Because of the varied geography of the islands, the variety of walks ranges from pleasant strolls through meadows and forests or along the coast, to challenging mountain hikes on Pico, Portugal's highest peak.

Each route is provided with comprehensive GPS data, a listing the most important features, detailed route descriptions, excerpts of maps with the routes marked in, and height profiles. The guide provides all of the information necessary for a successful walking holiday on the Azores.
