Offering 40 day walks in Lancashire, this guidebook explores the
often-overlooked regions of Forest of Bowland, Ribble Valley and
West Pennine Moors. With walks ranging from low-level valley trails
to higher hill routes, this guidebook offers plenty of year-round
walking options for active families and committed hikers alike. The
walks are accessible from a range of nearby villages, towns and
cities including Preston, Blackburn, Burnley, Chorley, Lancaster
and Clitheroe. Lancashire showcases some of the most varied walking
in the UK, featuring the wide expanse of Morecambe Bay, the Forest
of Bowland AONB and limestone fringes of the Yorkshire Dales. These
walks travel along green valleys, gritstone moors and untamed
hillsides to explore remnants of Lancashire's rich history: The War
of the Roses, the Pendle witch trials and the industrial heritage
of the West Pennine Moors. Providing detailed route description and
clear OS mapping for all 40 walks, this guidebook includes an
introduction full of information about the area including
accommodation, transport and access. The appendices contain a route
summary table to help you plan your days out, while each walk
offers notes on wildlife, history, geology and available
refreshments.
