Product Description
Product Description
The Yorkshire Dales include some of the most attractive countryside in Britain, distinctive because of the magnificent limestone landscape that forms much of the National Park. On the high, exposed moorlands the landscape is lonely, austere and dramatic. The valleys, however, present a striking contrast. The word 'dale' comes from the Danish for 'valley', and here the walker can explore small woods, riverside meadows and neat green fields separated by miles of drystone walls, dotted with unspoilt villages such as Burnsall and Grassington.
About the Author

Format:Paperback
These guides are brilliant. The walks are arranged with the shortest at the beginning of the book and the longest at the end, so if you haven't done much walking you can ease yourself in gently.
Each walk is detailed over about five pages. There is a Ordnance Survey map showing the complete walk, though they are not large and I would therefore advise you to take a 1:25000 map of the area and a compass that you know how to use. There is a general description of the walk with points corresponding to the map and advice on where to park the car or catch a bus.
I would consider the Pathfinder series to be the best available, as the descriptions of the walks compared to my experiences of these walks mean that the authors must have actually done them.

Loved this book, used it numerous times on my holidays in the Dales. The walks are clearly described, with good landmarks and easy to follow. Would recommend to anyone.
