Explore Europe on Foot: Your Complete Guide to Planning a Cultural Hiking Adventure. 
 
Chanticleer I & I Grand Prize Book Award Winner
 
Move over traditional sightseeing, throngs of visitors, and tourist traps! Explore Europe on Foot gives travelers an alternative way to discover Europe.
 
A hiking vacation offers countless rewards: the time to admire the tidiness of a village farm, soak in the rugged alpine view from a rocky perch, and absorb a country through the smells of its landscape and encounters with locals.
 
Explore Europe on Foot is a complete guide to conceptualizing, planning, and executing the slow-travel hike (or hikes!) of a lifetime. Author Cassandra Overby tells you how you can spend all, or even just part, of your vacation, enjoying the scenery, small towns, and cultural experiences most travelers miss-all without carrying a big backpack.
