Wandelgids Via Egnatia on foot deel 1 | Via Egnatia Foundation

Overzichtelijke wandelgids met gedetailleerde kaarten. GPS-Coördinaten zijn vermeld. Prima praktische informatie, tips, achtergrond informatie. Achter in de gids staat een woordenlijst met handige woorden in het Albanees, Grieks en Macedonisch.  Via Egnatia is the ancient Roman road to Istanbul that starts in Dürres, Albania, extending the Via Appia from Rome. Through mountains and valleys, along riverbeds, past lakes and seaside, villages and cities, Via Egnatia goes 1000 km eastward to Turkey. Parts of the old road are still there to enjoy for the observant hiker. Making use of the Roman stations, this is a journey into history.

Via Egnatia stands for the cultural connection between East and West. Walking here offers a special insight into the amalgam of cultures that have become the Balkans. A book for the interested traveller - whether hiking, riding or driving - on a fascinating way, that may become a life's addiction.
