EuroNatur Travel Guide to the Adratic East Coast
Seeing Birds and Experiencing Nature in Historic Landscapes on the Mediterranean Coast
Every year millions of sun-hungry tourists come to the eastern shore of the Adriatic to enjoy the pleasant Mediterranean climate and the alluring beaches. But those who limit their travels to the summer months and the tourist hot spots seldom get to know the region’s real treasures, to which this little book calls attention.
This travel guide encourages readers to discover the charming coastal region from a novel perspective and shows them – often just a few miles from heavily travelled main roads – unsuspected natural high-lights. Tips on cultural treasures along the way are not forgotten. Well-informed descriptions of the various habitats, with their rich and interesting flora and fauna, prepare readers to discover the region’s astounding diversity and magical beauty. Detailed route descriptions lead nature lovers to the region’s most rewarding destinations.
Not exclusively but exspecially for readers interested in birds, the nature travel guide – written with passion by experienced field ornithologists – is a genuine treasure providing in-depth information on numerous significant but little-known habitats on one of Europe’s most important migraton flyways.
