This Ordnance Survey pocket guide features 10 leisurely and accessible walks with stunning scenery intended mainly for people new to recreational walking and is promoting the OS 'Get Outside' initiative encouraging a healthy lifestyle. It is, of course, suitable for anyone wanting to take their time without taking all day.
