Costa Blanca Ridges – New Mobile Version

Posted on February 13, 2013 by Alan James - Rockfax

We have just released version 2 of the Costa Blanca Ridges MiniGuide by Mark Glaister. This new version is in our new mobile format – an interim format which is best used on a smartphone or tablet.

This is our second Mobile MiniGuide after Gower Sport Climbing back in October
 2012. The format isn’t really ground-breaking but is a useful stop-gap between printed PDFs and a full App version.

The information in this MiniGuide has been slightly updated with a bit of feedback after version 1 and a slight modification of the way the text descriptions are presented. It covers the same five ridges – El Realet, Espolón Central, Bernia, Toix and Segaria.

The new Spain : Costa Blanca Rockfax print guidebook actually covers four of these ridges as well with the same information and this Mobile MiniGuide just adds a portable version plus the bonus Segaria Ridge.

We are now offering the Costa Blanca Ridges MiniGuide for free with every online purchase of the Spain : Costa Blanca guide from this web site.

The new edition of Spain : Costa Blanca is now available for pre-order at a special offer price of £24.95 (RRP £29.95).

Pre-order your copy now to take advantage of this special offer and to ensure that you receive the book as soon as possible after it is published. This will be the fastest way to get hold of a copy of the book, in fact you might even get it before we do since the main delivery goes straight to the warehouse before being moved on to Rockfax base in Sheffield.

The Costa Blanca is the most popular destination for travelling climbers seeking winter-sun and this book adds to the long legacy of great Rockfax publications covering this area. Over 3000 routes on 47 crags make this the biggest Rockfax with plenty of new crags and information. The book will open up new crags, give life to places you thought you had become tired of and inspire many new climbers to visit this wonderful climbing area.
