If holidays are about new experiences, then this pocket guide will add a further dimension to your stay on Kefalonia. It solves two problems — where to walk and where to find some good, traditional food. The gastronomical touch extends a little further, with recipes for some of the island‘s dishes, both specialities and traditional. There are strolls for hot days and longer walks to work up an appetite. And if you‘re just after some recommendations for where to eat, you need look no further!

This pocket-sized full-colour guide, illustrated with hundreds of photographs, is designed for short-break holidays. It describes walks and recommends restaurants/hotels on or at the end of the walk routes (with sample menus). Following each restaurant entry is one or more of their recipes, to be made in self-catering accommodation or at home. Other sections include: planning your trip, logistics on arrival, shopping for self-catering (including health food shops), local markets and specialities, glossary of local food terms, etc. Each book contains topographical walking maps (1:35,000) to accompany the clear walk instructions. Our unique online Update service with route-change information, users’ recommendations and any future changes to restaurant information and recommendations, is available for this new series (click on "Current Update" above).
All the recipes have been tested by the authors and are known to ‘work’. The recipes and shopping information caters for users who are on wheat-, gluten- and dairy-free diets.
