Legal notice and disclaimer

This work is a travel guide designed to inform, inspire and entertain. Its content gathers the personal experiences, suggestions and impressions of the author and the editorial team, and is offered to the reader as an invitation to discover places and ideas with an open mind. References to places, routes, establishments, activities, products or services are purely for guidance, do not constitute professional advice and should not be understood as a binding recommendation. The publisher and the author do not undertake to update the content once it has been published.

The content has been prepared with the greatest possible care and verified, to the extent reasonable, as of the editorial closing date. Even so, neither the publisher nor the author makes any express or implied warranty as to its accuracy, completeness, timeliness or fitness for a particular purpose. Opening hours, prices, locations, trade names, access conditions, local regulations and other circumstances may change without notice, and accordingly neither the author nor the publisher accepts any liability for any loss, damage or inconvenience that any person may suffer as a result of the information or advice contained in this work. Before planning or undertaking any trip or activity, we recommend that the reader confirm the details directly with official sources or service providers.

The guide proposes outdoor activities, walking and cycling routes, vehicle journeys, visits to natural environments and other experiences which, like any adventure, may involve certain risks inherent to the surroundings and to the circumstances of the moment.

For that reason, any activity carried out as a result of or inspired by the content of the book is undertaken freely, voluntarily and at the reader's own responsibility. It is for the reader to assess their physical and technical abilities and experience, as well as the conditions of the environment (including weather conditions) before starting any activity. Before setting out on any route, it is sensible to check current path conditions, the weather forecast, the actual difficulty of the route and the applicable access rules, and to carry suitable equipment. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the publisher and the author are released from any liability for personal injury, material damage, moral damage or any other harm arising directly or indirectly from use of the book.

Where this work suggests or recommends the use of a particular means of transport (bicycle, motor vehicle, public transport, watercraft or other), the suggestion is purely informative. It is for the reader to hold the permit, licence or authorisation required by law, as well as the physical and technical abilities and experience needed to use it safely. The reader should also assess their own state of health and take the appropriate precautions, including, where relevant, travel and medical insurance, vaccinations and suitable medication. The reader is likewise responsible for complying with traffic and road-safety regulations, compulsory insurance and any other legal obligations applicable in each jurisdiction. The publisher and the author shall not be liable for any damage arising from improper, reckless or unlawful use of any means of transport.

The book contains descriptive references to trademarks, trade names, products, services, establishments, institutions, media outlets and persons (including public figures, artists, performers and professionals). All trademarks, trade names, logos and distinctive signs mentioned are the property of their respective owners and are used exclusively for informational, descriptive, illustrative or quotation purposes, within the limits of the right of quotation and the freedom of information.

The inclusion of any brand, establishment, place, person or entity in this work does not imply the existence of any commercial relationship, contractual link, sponsorship, cooperation, mutual recommendation, exchange of goods, services or favours, or any endorsement or approval by the relevant rights holder. The selection of the references included reflects solely the editorial and personal judgement of the author. Any rights holder who considers their inclusion inappropriate or wishes to request its removal in future editions may contact the publisher using the contact details indicated at the end of this notice.

The text, photographs, illustrations, maps, QR codes, designs, layout and, in general, all original content in the book are protected by national and international intellectual and industrial property legislation and are owned by "Vacondi Publishing, S.L.", the author or the relevant third-party licensors.

Any total or partial reproduction, distribution, public communication, transformation, making available or any other act of exploitation of the content, in any medium and by any means, is expressly prohibited without the prior written authorisation of the rights holder, except in the cases permitted by law (quotation, review, private non-commercial use, etc.).

Where the book invites the reader to take photographs or recordings, we ask that they always bear in mind the applicable local rules and the rights of other people, in particular the rights to one's own image, privacy and protection of personal data. Before photographing or recording identifiable persons, it is advisable to obtain their consent; where minors are concerned, consent must be obtained from those exercising parental authority or guardianship. In certain places (museums, places of worship, military installations, private property, protected areas, etc.) capturing images may be prohibited or restricted.

We also encourage readers to travel with a respectful attitude towards the customs, traditions, religious beliefs, languages, symbols and social norms of the places they visit, avoiding behaviour that may be offensive or intrusive to local communities.

Journeys, activities, conduct and consumption described or suggested in the book are subject to the national, regional and local rules of the place where they take place. It is the reader's responsibility to become informed about and to comply with the applicable legislation in each case, including, by way of guidance, immigration, customs, tax, environmental, planning, protected-area, traffic, alcohol and other substances and public-order rules. Ignorance of local rules does not exempt the reader from compliance with them, nor does it transfer any liability to the publisher or the author.

This book includes QR codes and links that redirect to the publisher's website (www.vacondi.com and associated domains) and, where applicable, to third-party websites. The content hosted on these sites may be updated, modified or removed at any time, with no need for prior notice to the reader. As a result, the content available via the QR codes may not match the content described or referred to in the printed or digital book at the time of consultation.

The publisher accepts no liability for the content, products, services, practices or policies of third-party websites accessed from its platforms or from the QR codes in the book, nor does it guarantee the availability, security or operation of such sites. Access to external content takes place at the reader's responsibility.

The publisher's website may include advertising spaces and sponsored content, managed through "Vacondi Publishing, S.L."'s own ad server or that of authorised third parties. Such spaces are clearly identified as advertising or sponsored content, in accordance with the applicable rules on advertising and information-society services.

The inclusion of any advertising space or sponsored content on the website does not imply any recommendation, endorsement, warranty or verification of the advertised product or service by the publisher. Any contractual relationship resulting from the purchase of an advertised product or service is established exclusively between the reader and the relevant advertiser. The publisher shall not be liable for any claims or damages arising from such a relationship. Advertising included in the printed book (where applicable) will also be clearly identified as such.

The book is originally published in German and may be translated into other languages, including, among others, English and Spanish versions. In the event of any discrepancy or contradiction between the different language versions, the original German version shall prevail for interpretation purposes.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, "Vacondi Publishing, S.L.", the author, its contributors, distributors and licensors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages, loss of profits, loss of opportunity or any other loss arising from use of the book, its content, the QR codes, the associated websites or any activities undertaken on the basis of the information contained therein. Nothing in this notice is intended to exclude or limit liability for wilful misconduct, gross negligence, personal injury caused by negligence or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
