Walks, Tracks and Trails of New South Wales highlights the best the state has to offer, from an outback ghost town and ancient lake beds, to Australia’s highest mountain, coastal environments and World Heritage rainforests. Easy-to-interpret maps are included to help you navigate, and the book’s size makes it convenient to bring with you on your adventures.

Download or read book Exploring South Africa written by Marian Elsden and published by Modus Associates Limited. This book was released on 2009 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extra-special eBook is a great introduction to a wonderful travel destination. This first volume covers the coastline from Cape Town to Durban and includes the famed Garden Route. There is so much to see and do along this coast that you may never get to explore inland areas - but you can always come back another time for that. The guide is written in a pleasing, informative style with masses of information about the places along this 1,500 mile coast. As with other EZE Travel titles you won’t find details of accommodation – the internet is a far better search mechanism to find the right hotels for you. Likewise there are no out-of-date lists of bars and restaurants – in reallity, there are so many to choose from that it would be invidious to list just a few. It is however full of information on places to visit, things to see and do - from sky-diving to whale-watching and much, much more! Contributors include local municipalities and their tourist offices as well as South Africans who actually use this area as part of their playground - so it is full of reliable, useful and authoritative information. This guide doesn’t just cover the well known places but explores the Klein Karoo with its ostrich farms, winelands and Cango Caves as well as other lesser known areas along the route. Altogether it is a great introduction to a truly stupendous travel destination. Each attraction listed includes images and location maps which show clearly which other sights or places are located in the immediate vicinity - together with details on nearest Tube stations and, where appropriate, attraction opening times and dates.All in all, a very worthwhile publication.

Download or read book The Nature of North Head written by Peter Macinnis and published by Peter Macinnis. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The notion of a vade mecum (it literally means "go with me") has largely disappeared from use, but this ebook is a guide for strangers and locals to carry on phone or tablet when they visit one of Australia's biological wonders, a place where 500 species of plant live on 250 hectares (a square mile in old currency) of desperately poor sandy soil, along with an amazing range of animal and other life forms. The vade mecum is back! People entering Sydney Harbour or taking a ferry to Manly see North Head to starboard, and admire the 80-metre cliffs, but they don't realise that they are looking at a sand-tied island, a piece of rock which is over 200 million years old, and even the locals don't know that we have so many plant species growing there, not to mention ants, pythons, butterflies, weevils, water dragons, ticks, birds, possums, dragonflies, bandicoots, echidnas, tree snakes, lichens, stick insects, snails, spiders, lichens, fungi, colourful bacteria, bird of paradise flies, ant lions, frogs and much more on the 10,000-year-old sandhills that formed in the last Ice Age. Peter Macinnis is biology-trained and cares about rocks, but prefers to call himself a naturalist, and he has played on, and walked over, the headland for more than 70 years (how much more, he won't say, admitting only to being of advanced middle age). This is a revised version (August 2024) of a print book, optimised for reading on your mobile phone or tablet. He has worked as a volunteer on land care projects on North Head since 2013, and his photos of his finds fill this book. He knows where the bodies are buried — and they aren't all in the Third Quarantine Cemetery! Peter wins awards when he writes for children, and while this book is written for teens and up, the clarity is there to allow eight-year-olds who resemble him at that age to learn a great deal about the rocks, plants, animals and lesser life forms, all of which may be found in this naturalists' wonderland.
