  Steering clear of adventure travel cliches, Time Out has cherry-picked 40 diverse and exciting experiences from all corners of the world, from wilderness wanderings, volcano climbs and canoe expeditions to snow safaris, road trips and epic rail journeys. This is an inspirational, visually enticing book with lavish full-colour photography throughout, and stimulating, in-depth travel writing from an impressive stable of writers. Libby Purves crews on a Tall Ships Race; ski expert Minty Clinch investigates Kashmir's pristine powder; and, Time Out magazine's travel editor Chris Moss takes the Trans-Manchurian Express to the shores of Lake Baikal. This is a book for all fitness levels, from those hardy enough to scale the world's highest peaks to those who prefer adventures at the wheel.
