This is a huge collection of small tips to make a real difference to your walking, whether you' re on a leisurely stroll in your local urban area, exploring a national park, planning a long-distance trail or hiking in the mountains in winter - this book will help you to make the most of every walk. The vast range of topics covered includes navigation, essential kit and clothing, safety, fitness, food, walking with dogs, how to cope with various weather conditions and what to do if you get lost. Whether you' re a walking novice or an experienced trekker, Paul' s wealth of knowledge and practical advice will inspire you and help to enrich your time outdoors.
Paul Besley is a writer who started exploring the British landscape while at school in the 1970s. His main focus of work is the interaction between human and land from the Neolithic period to the present day. His work has evolved into the study of how the physical environment imprints itself on humans and how we as a race respond. Paul first hiked in Derbyshire as a teenager, and has honed his outdoor expertise as a volunteer ranger for the Peak District National Park, a member of Woodhead Mountain Rescue and a walking guide. His previous publications include Day Walks in the South Pennines for Vertebrate Publishing and three guides to walking in the Peak District for Cicerone Press. He lives close to the peat and gritstone of the Peak District with his wife, metalsmith Alison Counsell, their two pet dogs Monty and Olly, and his Mountain Rescue Search Dog, Scout.
