EASTERN EUROPE

Anica Kuk, the main cliff in Croatia's famed Paklenica Gorge. The classic Domzalski (graded 6a, but actually harder!) takes the fluted pillar on the right, while many other superb routes of up to 12 pitches can be climbed on the main face.

Vibrantly colourful Rockfax style (but better?!) guide to European Cragging. No route descriptions but lots of incredibly useful info and a stunning collection of photographs - hard to believe that they have virtually all been taken by two people (David alias Jingo & Carrie alias Wobbly, Atchison-Jones) - don't these people have to work? 384p.

A must!

Subtitled "The 600 best icefalls in the Alps".

Detailed topo guide to icefalls in the alpine ares of France, Switzerland, Slovenia and Italy, well illustrated with photos, photodiagrams and maps and in English throughout. As a guide, although there are plenty of easier routes in the book, free-standing pillars are also much in evidence which probably puts many of the climbs out of reach of the average climber. But as a book of ideas of where to go and day dream about it is without competition.

A stunning guidebook with some of the best colour mountain photography we have seen. The Julian Alps straddle the Italian-Slovenian border and are probably the best alpine range least visited by Brits. Also covers the Kamnik and Savinja Alps and the Karavanke. Over 80 tours are described from easy medium altitude walks to high-level summits and traverses - more a walking and scrambling guide than a climbing guide however. In English with good diagrams and maps. By Tine Mihelic. Card cover, marker ribbon, 270 pages.
