Synopsis

In this brand new range of practical little walk guides endorsed by the Ramblers, all featured routes are 5 miles or under in length and can easily be completed in less than 3 hours, making each one perfect for an afternoon stroll. 20 walks are included, all using clear maps to show the route plus easy-to-follow walk descriptions. Each adventure features a detailed Ordnance Survey map with the route clearly marked plus a detailed description of the route, and all trails have been chosen taking parking, refreshments, and other details into consideration in order to make life easy for families. All guides include general information on walking and the general areas covered, interesting facts about the things you'll encounter along the routes, and striking color photographs of each course's picturesque scenes.
