This new title is one of the first two in an updated series of Paul
Hannon's `Short Scenic Walks' guidebooks. The principle feature is
that all walks are less than five miles in length, offering a
perfect half day's stroll for families, casual walkers and all who
want to enjoy a leisurely exploration of Britain's outstanding
country landscapes. A range of enhancements include a wider
geographical spread, in this case merging - with full revision, two
popular titles which are now out of print. The walks start from
such places as Harrogate, Knaresborough, Pateley Bridge and Ripon,
and include such iconic landmarks as How Stean Gorge, Brimham
Rocks, Studley Royal, Almscliff Crag, the Nidd Gorge and the
Washburn Valley. In addition to being more visually appealing than
their predecessors, with a more modern house style, this new series
offers 30 walks rather than 20, and these more substantial books
feature a full spine rather than wire-stitched binding. Over 30
colour photographs depict features and landscapes along the routes.

National 3 Peaks Challenge Maps. Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and
Snowdon at 20k scale. Waterproof, tearproof and 100% recyclable
820mm by 420mm double sided map sheet. Taking OS mapping at 50k
scale we expand the mapping to produce 20k scale maps of the three
challenge peaks, Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. By expanding
the OS mapping the features of names, roads, tracks and trails are
more than doubled in size making them easier to read under
Challenge conditions. We then add the Challenge Routes, specially
highlighted to make them stand out against the OS map background
information and add in additional information that will help your
challenge. Each map covers the region to show the access roads as
well as the walking routes. Ben Nevis includes the Glen Nevis
Information Centre starting point and Glen Nevis Youth Hostel
starting point. Scafell Pike includes the Wasdale and Seathwaite
Challenge Routes. Snowdon includes the Pyg Track, Miners Track and
Llamberis Challenge Routes. Each peak is a 420mm by 420mm OSlike
map mounted on a double sided map sheet of 840mm by 420mm. The map
designs are then printed on a 100 micron plastic substrate using UV
cured inks on the UK's only press capable of using this latest
technology. The result is a lightweight map that is both waterproof
and tearproof, and fully recyclable, that will survive anything
your 3 Peaks Challenge can throw at it and afterwards will fold up
like new.
