Does anyone have any walking resources for the Costa Blanca? I already own the Rother walking guide, the Discovery Walking Guide (Charles Davis) and the Cicerone publication for the area. There is a fair bit of overlap between the above books, and we’re looking for challenging day walks (Bernia Ridge eg) rather than short bimbles. 
Thanks in advance,

Stu

Yes, this: https://www.cicerone.co.uk/costa-blanca-mountain-adventures

Loads of mountain days in there including ridges, walks, runs, cycling, via ferrata and canyons.

Due out next month

Bernia ridge is more than a walk.

Yes, I’m aware. We’ve done it before. I was using it as an example of the kind of days out that we were looking for. We’re both experienced climbers, but I didn’t feel the need to mention that when posting. Looks like I’ve been pointed in the direction of an excellent resource.

The Rockfax guide to the Costa Blanca includes a few ridges in the area. Another guidebook, which unfortunately seem to be out of print at the moment is this one:

It looks like there'll be a reprint soon, but the above webpage lists a good selection of ridges in the area and you might find descriptions online.

Thanks Ken, I have the Rockfax guide, and I’ll look into the other one 🙂👍🏻

Very much looking forward to getting my copy.

Hopefully I can get it signed if I see you out there this winter :-]
