Title: Should be titled, "Getting Lost in Sicily"
Review: I just returned from Sicily where four of us -- hikers with many years of experience walking in various places around the world -- used this "guide" for walks in Southeastern Sicily. All four of us found this to be one of the worst walking guides we've ever used. The one useful part of the guide is identifying parks and preserves for walking, however we could have found all of those with a simple map. The actual descriptions of hikes were fraught with inaccuracies in distance, landmarks, etc. It's a great gift if you want to have a laugh watching your friends tramping back and forth across streams trying to find nonexistent trails or tangled up in brambles when a so-called trail simply disappears. We didn't find it so amusing and had much more fun following the trails mapped out by park and preserve officials. Keep your rucksack lightweight: don't bring along this guide on your next walking trip in Sicily.
