Then Halsgrove's 'Boot Up' series of walking guides is for you - simple, straightforward and modern and with all the important information: where to park, where to go, where to take the kids and where's the pub! Rodney Legg provides all the answers in ten walks, packed with colour photographs, along Dorset's unique World-Heritage Jurassic Coast The ten circular walks, ranging from 5 to 8 miles, suit the needs of families, groups of friends or individuals looking for a gentle stroll or a longer walk, and reflect the many varied facets of the area - its people, its history, and its working landscape and will help first time visitors to experience some of the great scenery the area has to offer.
