5.0 out of 5 stars One Hundred and Twenty Walks in Victoria, December 24, 1999

This review is from: 120 Walks in Victoria (Paperback)

I discovered an earlier edition of this truly great book in my local book shop and have since walked most of the walks in both the earlier and this current edition. It has to be the bible for anyone wanting to experience the joys the State of Victoria in Australia has to offer. The track notes are concise, yet easy to follow and are accompanied by useful maps for each walk. The publishers would be advised to re-think their layout designs as the book has a decidedly old fashion feel about it, BUT this does not detract from the usefulness of the book. WELL DONE MR THOMAS !

Bought it more than 5 years ago and we've covered only a third of the walks in this excellent book. Good details - could do with an update esp the maps. Otherwise, still quite user friendly/relevant.
