A guidebook to 40 circular walks in in two of Lancashire's largest
Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - the Forest of Bowland, an
area of 310 square miles, and the 'bewitching' countryside of
Pendle to the south. The walks range between 3 and 12.5 miles in
length and are all illustrated with extracts of OS mapping. The
diverse range of routes include four Marilyns - Ward's Stone,
Pendle Hill, Longridge Fell and Fair Snape Fell. The walks are
spread across the region, with bases including Caton, Dunsop
Bridge, Slaidburn, Clitheroe and Pendle. All the walks are
punctuated with snippets of information on the natural and cultural
history of the region, from witches to wildlflowers. The Forest of
Bowland and Pendle provide vastly differing terrain - from the lush
farmlands of the Ribble valley to the more rugged rough pastures of
the Forest of Bowland uplands and the huge boggy uplifts of the
main Bowland massif itself.
Our authors have chosen 15 of the best short walks around the
Surrey Hills for you to explore. Our guide comes with easy-to-read
Ordnance Survey maps and clear route descriptions, perfect if
you're new to walking or are looking for something you can enjoy
with the whole family. We've included information on local beauty
spots and tasty refreshment stops, and most of the walks can be
completed in under 3 hours. We haven't included any walks with
challenging terrain or complicated navigation, and all you'll need
to take with you are a waterproof jacket and a pair of comfortable
trainers.
