Product Description
Product Description
A brand new range of practical little walk guides endorsed by the Ramblers. All the walks are 5 miles or under in length and can easily be completed in less that 3 hours. 20 walks are included and use clear maps to show the route plus easy to follow walk descriptions.
The Peak District, with its two very different landscapes: the gentle limestone White Peak with its intimate wooded dales and steep-sided gorges; and the wilder more dramatic gritstone Dark Peak with its wild moorland, offer some superb walking areas. This guide, produced in co-operation with the Ramblers and featuring Ordnance Survey mapping, is the perfect way to get out and enjoy the stunning scenery.
This compact little guide contains walks, all of which are 5 miles or under, which are ideal for an afternoon stroll.
INCLUDES:
• 20 easy to follow walks which can be completed in 3 hours and under.
• Each walk has a detailed Ordnance Survey map with the route clearly marked plus a detailed description of the route.
• The walks have been chosen with issues like parking and refreshments in mind to make life easy for families.
• There are interesting facts about the things you'll see along the route.
• All the books include general information on walking and also the general area covered by the guide.
• Packed with colour photographs of scenes you will see along the walk.

We're up to the 4th walk in the book at the moment we've been doing one every Sunday come rain, snow or shine and as long as you're well equipped it's great to be out.
This book has some lovely walks starting in some great little villages and is introducing me to parts of the High Peak that I wouldn't possible of discovered. The only quibble I have is that the directions in the book aren't that great and I do find that it trys to take you over farmers fields (even though its a public footpath) when there's no need as if you stayed on the path you're on it joins up with the route anyway.
Best one we've done so far is Derwent Moor lots to see and the grouse are really lovely :)
Looking forward to more walks.

This guide really bring the trails of the Peak district to life. On nearly every page, there is at least one vivid account which captivates the mind and soul and transports you right there. Likewise, the write-up of each walk is written in a precise style and makes the reader feel as if they were actually hiking the trail. Lots of useful information too and a very accurate companion to have with you on these walks.

I have found this book to be compact yet accurate. It can easily be carried around on a walk as i've completed one walk so far. It covers, to me, what is a beautiful area of our splendid green island. Definitely worth the money. Hope this helps.

Confusing
I don't get it! Why would the author of this book use so few words to describe a way point. Description is poor and instead of using some obvious markers use confusing descriptions... Read more

Did a couple of walks, couple of points on each walk needed better referencing & could do with approx distances between points.

Book of walks
It was nice to be able to get a book with just short walk in and it was small enough to carry.

The book arrived very quickly and even though it is not a hardback the cover is very strong and will stand being taken out on many walks before getting dogeared. Read more
