Description
Let your next trip begin here. Let a day on foot give your England trip a different pace. Best Day Walks England brings together 60 walks ranging from a few hours to a full day, with varying difficulty levels and landscapes. Here you can find a break from the city, or let walking become a common thread throughout your holiday.
The book highlights, among other places, Merlin’s Cave, the ancient woodland of Wistman’s Wood, and the landscape of the Malvern Hills. The selection covers Cumbria and the Lake District, Devon and Cornwall, Southwest England, northern and central England, as well as southeastern areas and London. This leaves room for nature, history, and small discoveries along the way.
What the guide offers. Each walk includes a map, directions, and information on distance, terrain, difficulty level, and start and end points. Regional overviews and suggestions for further walks nearby make it easier to choose a base. You can set aside a single day or find several alternatives around the same destination.
From the urge to walk to a concrete plan. Use the walk descriptions to compare alternatives before deciding. How much of the day do you want to spend outdoors, and what kind of terrain do you want to walk in? Maps and information on start and end points help you see how the walk fits into the rest of your holiday. This gives a better basis for choosing according to your own interests, rather than simply following the name of the most famous spot.
A physical walking guide makes it easy to browse through several options together with your travel companions. Find a few alternatives you’d like to look into further, and let the plan keep some flexibility. A shorter walk can be just as good a choice as a full day outdoors. The book can be used as a supplement to a regular travel guide, or as inspiration for a holiday where day walks take center stage.
