About this title

Review

Worth the price, trust me! OK, there are 100 walking guides out there, some of them old and revered, some old and outdated, some of which will allow you to search for older tracks and ways that have become obscured in recent times and fallen into desuetude, but this book will let you walk with success from day one. Coupled with the excellent and durable map which partners this book, this may be the only walking guide you will need to explore fully this beautiful island.
