Book description
This second part of a two-volume walking guide to the Yorkshire Dales
offers 42 day walks and suggestions for longer treks in the north and
east of the Dales National Park, including the Howgills, Mallerstang,
Nidderdale, Wensleydale, Swaledale and Coverdale. Each valley has a
character of its own, and this intimate and varied landscape harmonises,
as nowhere else in the country, the work of nature and the hand of man.
This guide takes you on an exploration of the dales and surrounding
hills and moors among some of the most remarkable limestone landscape in
the country, illustrated with OS mapping. Dennis and Jan Kelsall are
outdoor writers and photographers, contributing to various magazines and
producing a weekly walking feature for the Lancashire Evening Post. They
have a keen interest in the environment, its geology, flora and
wildlife. Other titles by Dennis and Jan Kelsall published by Cicerone
are The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, Walking in Pembrokeshire and The
Ribble Way.
