Teesdale & Weardale

This brand-new title is one of three concurrent additions to the updated series of Paul Hannon's 'Short Scenic Walks' guidebooks.

The principal feature is that all walks are less than five miles in length, offering a perfect half day's stroll for families, casual walkers and all who want to enjoy a leisurely exploration of Britain's outstanding country landscapes.

This title is based in and around the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in County Durham, and a range of enhancements include a wider geographical spread.

The walks start from such places as Middleton-in Teesdale, Romaldkirk, Stanhope, Cotherstone and Wolsingham, and include such iconic features as High Force, Egglestone Abbey, Hamsterley Forest, Cauldron Snout and UK 'Resort of the Year' Barnard Castle. In addition to being more visually appealing than their predecessors, with a more modern house style, this new series offers 30 walks rather than 20, and these more substantial books feature a full spine rather than wire-stitched binding.

Over 30 colour photographs depict features and landscapes along the routes.
