The Great Outdoors
The Great Outdoors is POLLEN's outdoor cookbook (in English), designed for road trips and camping stays. Size 20 × 27 cm: recipes cooked over an open fire, equipment tips, and menus from morning to night for hungry adventurers.
When adventure calls, hunger is never far behind: hiking, climbing, or sleeping under the stars works up an appetite. A quick avocado carbonara, rustic potato pancakes, or a Virgin Mojito will silence hungry stomachs and lift the spirits of any van driver.
The Great Outdoors explains how to cook over an open fire and showcases the best outdoor cooking gear along with the tastiest recipes for every meal of the day. From take-away sandwiches to homemade pesto, from specialties to true “power food,” this cookbook is essential for your next road trip or camping stay. Take it with you: you’re sure to make new friends both on the road and at the campsite.

Read before leaving, reread upon return
POLLEN brings together fifteen books that all talk about the same thing: going out. You follow legendary trails with Cam Honan, a year of cycling from Amsterdam to Singapore with Martijn Doolaard, the climbing scene with Julie Ellison, motorcycle routes, converted vehicles, and days spent below zero. One title leaves the road to tell the stories of lasting crafts: forging, weaving, sake brewing. All are in English, most printed in full color, in large formats that let the photography breathe.
