Yorkshire Dales Walks to Viewpoints Top 10 Walks Guidebook

author: Frank Kew
The walks in this pocket guide reflect the variety of scenery in the landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales. The underlying geology, mainly of gritstone and limestone, gives rise to different farming practices and other land use which, in turn, provide different vistas and experiences for the walker. Classic Dales' scenery of limestone pavements, scars, and screes feature strongly as do the atmospheric limestone gorges formed by glacial action. The two main upland glacial lakes in the Dales and their associated wetlands also feature, as do some lovely riverside strolls through flower-rich meadows.

This little pocket guide is produced in full colour with an emphasis on stunning professional photography. Each route has clear easy-to-follow numbered instructions including all the practical information you require, and full colour mapping based upon the Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 maps. There are also fascinating facts about places along the way.
