Trailblazer (travel)
Trailblazer is an independent British publisher of travel, trekking and railway route-guides. Started by author Bryn Thomas 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.
The company now publishes guides to long-distance footpaths in the United Kingdom, and hiking and adventure tourism guides to destinations elsewhere.
The publisher should not be confused with Trailblazer Travel Books, a series of recreational guides for the Hawaiian Islands, Sierra Nevada, and San Francisco, which are published by California-based Diamond Valley Company.
