About the Authors

Simon Whitmarsh and Andrew Mok are both keen walkers, covering over 2000km a year. They have walked extensively in Britain, doing (at least part) of all the major trails, have hiked across England twice, and have walked in most countries in Europe. More recently their addiction to mountains has increased, with treks in the US (including many parts of the Appalachian Trail), Australia, New Zealand, Andrew’s native Hong Kong, Nepal (Everest Base Camp) and Pico, the highest mountain in Portugal, which is in the Azores.

They are both doctors – a consultant paediatrician and a general practitioner – who decided to write this book after being delighted and astounded by the walking opportunities of Portugal.

When not travelling, they enjoy finding new routes near their village in Snowdonia.
