South Pennines

The principal feature is that all walks are less than five miles in length, offering a perfect half day's stroll for families, casual walkers and all who want to enjoy a leisurely exploration of Britain's outstanding country landscapes. A range of enhancements include a wider geographical spread. This title covers a fascinating region of the Pennines between Bronte Country and the Peak District, considerably expanding on the area covered by 'Hebden Bridge and the Calder Valley' which will become out of print in 2023. Now the ever popular Hebden Bridge area of Calderdale is joined by the countryside of Kirklees, and across the Pennines to embrace the characterful Saddleworth area (traditionally a corner of Yorkshire). With starting points such as Holmfirth, Hebden Bridge, Uppermill and Todmorden, the book's many highlights include Stoodley Pike, Heptonstall, Standedge and Hollingworth Lake. In addition to being more visually appealing than their predecessors, with a more modern house style, this new series offers 30 walks rather than 20, and these more substantial books feature a full spine rather than wire-stitched binding. Over 30 colour photographs depict features and landscapes along the routes.
