And on the days when your feet may have had enough, enjoy some spectacular scenery on one of our legendary car tours. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sunflower Southern Peloponnese guide is indispensable for hiking in the Peloponnese or seeing the Peloponnese by car. There are hidden landscapes throughout mainland Greece, but the region which packs the most variety into the smallest space is the Peloponnese. From the beaches of Arcadia to the fir forests of Mt Parnon, from the olive groves of Kalamata to the pyramidal peak of Prophet Elijah, from classical Sparta to medieval Mani, this compact semi-island has it all. Though the ancients called it ''the island of Pelops'', after their mythical king, this three-fingered landmass is joined to the mainland by a narrow isthmus at Corinth. Only in the 19th century was a canal finally cut through the isthmus, but it retains the cultural diversity and spectacular scenery of the mainland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause there''s so much to discover, the author has drawn an east-west line roughly through the middle of the Peloponnese, and limited the book to the southern half. By good fortune, this contains its highest mountain range (Mt Taygetus), its finest Byzantine chapels and medieval forts (in the Mani), its wildest seascapes (Capes Tainaron and Maleas), its largest forest (Mt Parnon) and, arguably, some of its loveliest beaches (Pylos, Kiparissi and Elafonisos, to name just a few.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhatever your age or ability we''ve got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in the southern Peloponnese.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInside the Sunflower Southern Peloponnese guide book you''ll find:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e50 long and short walks for all ages and abilities\u003c\/strong\u003e - each walk is graded so you can easily match your ability to the level of walk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTopographical walking maps\u003c\/strong\u003e - give you a clear sense of the surrounding terrain with a scale of 1:50 000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFree downloadable gps tracks\u003c\/strong\u003e - for the techies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSatnav guidance to walk starts for motorists \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5 car tours and fold-out touring map\u003c\/strong\u003e - for easy reference on your tour \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrolls to idyllic picnic spots \u003c\/strong\u003e- enjoy our recommendations for where to picnic along the way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTimetables for public transport\u003c\/strong\u003e - ideal if you want to link two walks or avoid hiring a car on your holiday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnline update service for the latest information\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you tour the islands by car or explore on foot, we look forward to showing you around. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57316551065982,"sku":"NW9781856915281","price":14.15,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781856915281.jpg?v=1778700922","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/southern-peloponnese-5-car-tours-50-lon","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
