  1. I have searched the NG archives and Web for info to help me plan a walk of
    about 8 days in Mallorca. Everything I have seen is geared up to a base from
    where day walks take place. Can anyone help with suggestions for something
    linear?

    One of our party, although very fit, has limited vision, and has been known
    to disappear down holes at the side of very narrow upland paths. We'd prefer
    to avoid that; SOME slow-paced intensive guidance for him is fine, but we
    don't want to be doing that all the time, so some clear paths, relatively
    obstruction-free is what we prefer. We usually stay in hostel/gites type
    accommodation or small hostals/hotels. We are used to walking 6-8 hrs a day
    in various terrains and we are OK with some shorter days and <some>
    sightseeing.

    I have ordered June Parker's book. Any other recommendations?

    Would September be too hot?

    Discovery guides. Sadly June Palmer is the late June Palmer and
    access problems on Mallorca (due to influxes of northern
    europeans) need up to date info.

    walking weather but we all differ.
