The GR221 or Drystone Trail is a dramatic new 88-mile trail traversing the rugged Serra de Tramuntana Mountains of Mallorca. The route is divided into nine days walking. Each day walk section is beautifully covered with full colour photographs and passages showing the local highlights and other points of interest on the route.

This pocket size guide is an excellent guide to the Drystone route and should be considered an essential starting point for anyone considering walking this route as it is packed with useful and informative information and contacts.

‘This is the latest walking guidebook by Paddy Dillon. He has already published 20 Cicerone guides plus a completely updated and expanded version of the Classic Walking in Mallorca guide.

The guide covers the long-distance GR221 route, a 9-day linear trek from south to north among the Sierra de Tramuntana, Mallorca’s main range. The guide included six alternatives or variants and one extension. The guide follows the usual Cicerone format with full-day section descriptions, including sketch maps.

The author uses a palm-top computer to write his descriptions as he walks and this gives an extra immediacy and accuracy to this guide.’
