Yorkshire Dales

The Yorkshire Dales National Park is an area of outstanding natural beauty that is best revealed to those who leave the roads and follow the footpaths up to the loneliness of the high fells.

Great Walks: Yorkshire Dales includes twenty-eight of the best walks in this region, ranging from short easy strolls to tough expeditions.

The introduction provides background information on the area together with a description of its characteristics.

The walks are graded for difficulty. For each, detailed maps and directions are given together with descriptions of the features of interest along the way.

The author's clear, description of these well-loved walks evoke both the history and character of the countryside and illustrate vividly the joys (and pitfalls!) of fell walking.
