Good book. Brought for a present, much appreciated by recipient. Ring binder type of book is very practical as too is the plastic/waterproof paper on which it is printed. Would be good if there were other in this series, or ones that were region specific and not UK wide.

Super Book and really well organised for the serious walker and an excellent Xmas present. Snow held up it's arrival but it was here in time for Xmas. In fact Amazon was the only marketplace to get the purchases through in time for Xmas so well done them! Recommended.

I've now done about half a dozen of the walks in here and really like the book and the walks. They are pretty well spread across the UK, so there is likely to be something near you, but I really wanted these walks so that when on holiday or visiting friends I would have a couple of local options rather than having to buy a new walk book for every part of the country and in that respect it works well.
The selection of walks is good, although there are quite a lot of mountains in there, so while definitely being for walkers and not climbers, if you find gradients a challenge then this might not be for you.
There are a few shorter walks of 2-3 hours, but the majority are around the 4-5 hour mark, with a fair few of 6-7, so these are definitely for people who want a full day out.
The maps are taken from the OS maps (although it's a good idea to buy the OS map too), and the descriptions are concise and clear. I really like the ring binder format, which means you can just take one sheet of paper with you rather than having to carry the whole book and the paper is quite hard wearing.
The walks I've done so far have been pretty stunning in their geography, and it makes you realise what a beautiful country we live in. I have quite a few walk books on the shelf, but this is definitely my favourite.
