Developed in the late ’80s, the eco-tourist approach is characterised by a two-fold concern for the places visited and the well-being of the people who live there. The means of eco-sustainable transport can be diverse: a canoe or kayak, a bicycle, a horse or mule… even our own legs! You may say the same for accommodation facilities: hotels, bed and breakfasts, farmhouses that are keen on recycling, using renewable energy sources and meeting the criteria to be a green-building. Fifty routes to eco-friendly travel around the world: each chapter will provide useful travel directions, schematic maps, information on stages to follow and tips for travelling in an environmentally sustainable way (from equipment to contacts of ecological facilities). Stunning pictures will accompany the reader in discovery of the most beautiful scenarios of the world: from forests and mountains to historic roads, small villages, peaks and deserts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
