The Lune Valley and Howgills
Cicerone Press (Verlag)
978-1-85284-916-0 (ISBN)
A guidebook to 40 day walks in and around the valley of the River Lune, which wends its way between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District National Parks. From riverside paths to fell-tops and fields, there are walks for all abilities.
The walks range in length from 5–18km (3–11 miles) and can be enjoyed in between 1 and 6 hours. They are arranged geographically, following the Lune as it flows from near Kirkby Stephen in Cumbria, around the Howgill Fells and downstream towards its mouth on Morecambe Bay, Lancashire.
1:50,000 OS maps included for each walk
Sized to easily fit in a jacket pocket
GPX files available to download
Refreshment and public transport options are given for each walk
Information given on local geology and wildlife
Dennis and Jan Kelsall have long held a passion for countryside and hill walking. Since their first Cicerone title was published in 1995, they have written, contributed and illustrated over 50 guides to some of Britain's most popular walking areas and have become regular contributors to various outdoor magazines. Their enjoyment of the countryside extends far beyond a love of fresh air, open spaces and scenery. Over the years Dennis and Jan have developed a wider interest in the environment, its geology and wildlife, as well as an enthusiasm for delving into local history, which so often provides clues to interpreting the landscape.
