British Columbia is vast, four times the size of the UK, with only 3.5 million people, most of them in Vancouver. From the heights of the Canadian Rockies to the awesome Pacific coast, it contains a wide range of peoples, terrain and opportunities for real exploration. The Canadian wilderness gives meaning to the words pristine and rugged. With 637 provincial parks, six national parks, wide regions of protected land and age-old forests, wild mountain rivers, grizzly bears and sockeye salmon, British Columbia is a paradise for the outdoor enthusiast. The weather is mild on the coast, more extreme in the mountains - BC even has a desert. The trails in this guide balance coastal and mountain regions. In an area so vast, they can only offer a taste of what British Columbia has to offer. There is a selection of shorter walks of great scenic beauty, many introducing the walker into regions dominated by native (First Nations) culture. These are balanced by harder mountain trails, including many multi-day expeditions, which take the walker far into the wild and offer great challenges.

California 's nickname Golden State dates from its Wild West mining era. But on sunny days when the coastal fog lifts, it might just as well describe California 's more than 1100 miles of Pacific beaches.

Miami es muy diferente al resto de ciudades estadounidenses. Su situación privilegiada al sur de Florida, con una temperatura media anual de 24 grados, hace que sus playas de arena blanca bañadas por el azul turquesa del oceano Atlantico, esten llenas de gente durante los doce meses del año, pero Miami es mucho mas que playa y sol. Alli se puede tomar un cafe al mas puro estilo cubano en Little Havana, hacer compras en las lujosa Lincoln Avenue o sentarse en alguna de las terrazas de Ocean Drive, para contemplar el ambiente unico de South Beach, entre cocteles tropicales, musica latina a todo volumen y los casi 1.000 edificios de estilo Art Deco,que han convertido a Miami en un mito del cine americano. Y todo ello, muy cerca de la naturaleza salvaje de Parques Nacionales como los Everglades, con bosques de plantas tropicales y animales en peligro de extincion, como cocodrilos, panteras y manaties.
