Trailblazer (travel)

Trailblazer is an independent British publisher of travel, trekking and railway route-guides. Started by author Bryn Thomas[1] in 1991,[2] it was originally synonymous with the Trans-Siberian Handbook, which for years was the only guide to crossing Asia by rail and remains much respected.[3][4] Another early success was Mark Elliott and Wil Klass's Asia Overland (1998).[5]

Not to be confused with Trailblazer Travel Books, a series of American recreational guides.

The company now publishes guides to long-distance footpaths in the United Kingdom, and hiking and adventure tourism guides to destinations elsewhere.
