Short Walks in Lakeland Book 3: West Lakeland

The third and final book in the "Short Walks in Lakeland" trilogy, which also covers South Lakeland (book 1) and North Lakeland (book 2).

This guide covers Duddon Valley and the coast, Eskdale, Wasdale, Ennerdale and the coast, Lorton Vale, Buttermere and the north-west. 50 walks are described, generally between 4 and 8 miles - enough to pleasantly fill a good half-day, and ideal for day visitors and family walkers.

Priority is given to the lower fells and dales, which include many worthwhile summits.

Some of the walks are classics and well used. Others seek out lonely tracks which are still green and a joy to walk.

Interesting features are pointed out along the way, whilst the specially drawn maps help with navigation.

The combination of detailed description and clear, easy-to-follow maps and evocative sketches makes this book ideal for anyone who wants to explore West Lakeland.
