About the Author

A lifelong passion for the countryside in general, and mountains in particular, drives Kev's desire to share his sense of wonder and delight in the natural world through his writing, guiding, photography and lecturing. Spending several months each year among various high mountain regions researching guidebooks, makes him The Man with the World's Best Job; a title he aims to keep by remaining active for another 100 years at least. Kev has enjoyed a fruitful partnership with Cicerone since the 1970s, producing walking and trekking guides to the Pyrenees, Alps and Himalaya, as well as walking guides for Kent, Sussex and the Cotswolds and he has several more books in the pipeline. A frequent contributor to outdoor magazines, he also writes and illustrates brochures for national tourist authorities and travel companies. When not away in the mountains, Kev lives with his wife in a small cottage among what he calls 'the Kentish Alps' with unrestricted walking country on the doorstep. But he also travels throughout Britain during the winter months to share his love of the places he writes about through a series of lectures. Check him out on www.kevreynolds.co.uk

Reviews

''Kev' (as the much-thumbed guide was inevitably nicknamed) proved essential throughout the trip. Detailed route descriptions, distances and timings for different sections aided daily planning, while the excellent colour and black and white pictures helped us (and Nima the sirdar) keep track of progress - and proved a great ice-breaker with fascinated youngsters in the scattered Langtang villages. ... If you're heading for this area ... this guide is as essential a part of your kit as Lomotil and Fuji Provia. Take a spare copy for your Sherpa guide.' (John Manning, TGO) 'This is an excellent guide, good colour pics, all the information about both Nepal and the treks in the area you want - but what else do we expect from Kev?' (Joss Lynam, Irish Mountain Log)
