The first fully revised and updated edition of A. Wainwright's
pocket-sized guide to the classic Coast to Coast Walk. From St Bees
Head on the Irish Sea by way of the Lake District, the Pennines,
Swaledale and the North York Moors and ending at Robin Hood's Bay
on the North Sea, this 190-mile walk has over the years become one
of the best-loved long-distance routes in the world. First devised
in the early 1970s, the walk has prompted countless enthusiasts to
lace up their walking boots and follow Wainwright's example, and
inspired TV series by Tony Robinson for Channel 5 and Julia
Bradbury for BBC Four. This brand new edition of the Pictorial
Guide contains Wainwright's hand-drawn route maps and his
inimitable commentary, with the route, maps and text completely
revised and brought fully up-to-date by Chris Jesty.

Lifestyle supplement of the Gloucestershire Echo. These family
walks are from three to five miles long, cover some of the most
attractive hidden byways of the Cotswolds and include places of

The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path National Trail is an
easy-to-follow 130-mile trail that combines the best of inland and
coastal walking in Norfolk, and one that, being well waymarked,
largely flat and within easy reach of public transport for most of
its length, is ideal for people new to long-distance walks.
Described in 11 stages, the route can be walked in just over a week
but also easily split into day walks or over a series of weekends,
with full information about access to start and finish points for
each stage by public transport. This handy guidebook is illustrated
throughout with extracts of OS 1:50K mapping and stunning
photographs depicting the Trail in all seasons and describes points
of interest along the way, including the Norfolk Songlines
sculptures, and also facilities available in the towns and
villages. The trail is a walk of two halves. The Peddars Way begins
at Knettishall Heath in Suffolk and follows the route of an old
Roman road for over 40 miles to Holme-next-the-Sea, where it meets
the Norfolk Coast Path (which begins nearby, at Hunstanton). This
then follows the spectacular Norfolk coast to the seaside town of
Hopton-on-Sea.

This guidebook to Walking in the Chilterns offers 35 of the best
walks in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The
Chiltern Hills is a peaceful walking destination of chalk hills and
ancient woodlands within easy reach of London. The walks in this
guidebook range from 4 to 12 miles and are suitable for most
walkers. The walks take you on a journey through this classic
Chiltern landscape that has been shaped by human activity for
thousands of years, visiting interesting historic sites, colourful
gardens and picture-postcard villages with thatched cottages,
fascinating churches and cosy pubs. Step-by-step route directions
include lots of information about all these sites along the way,
and are illustrated with clear OS mapping and vibrant photographs.
GPX files are available to help with navigation. There is also
information on the region's rich geology, history and plantlife, as
well as advice on accommodation, transport and refreshments. The
Chiltern Hills follow a line of chalk from the River Thames at
Goring up to the Barton Hills just west of Hitchin, boasting great
views from the north west edge and, on the south east side, a more
intimate undulating landscape of rounded hills and valleys, covered
in a mix of broadleaved woodland and open farmland. Despite its
relative proximity to London, the region abounds in peace and
tranquility, making it an idyllic destination for a day's walk in
the countryside.
This guidebook describes 33 half- and full day walks on the islands
of Malta, Gozo and Comino. The routes range from 2.5-30km,
beginning with a short heritage trail around the city of Valletta.
Then follows a series of walks around the coastline of Malta, with
a final few moving inland to explore the island's interior, before
a description of the Heritage Trail around Mdina and Rabat. Walks
on Gozo start with a heritage trail around Victoria, followed by a
clockwise exploration of spectacular coastal walking that allows a
complete circuit of the island. The final walk on Gozo wanders over
a series of little hills further inland, while the last walk in the
book might be the best of them all: a circuit around the lovely
little island of Comino. The guidebook also gives details of
accommodation, transport and tourist information. Malta may be
known as a tourist destination, but it also offers plenty of
historic walks, stunningly beautiful and dramatic architecture and
excellent scenery, especially around the cliffs and coastlines.
