Annandale Way (2 ed)
Rucksack Readers (Verlag)
978-1-913817-16-9 (ISBN)
The Annandale Way is a charming long walk in a little-known, but very accessible, part of southern Scotland. Walked southward from source to the sea, it starts in the sheep town of Moffat, and runs for 56 miles (90 km) via Lochmaben, with superb views from the top of Almagill Hill. A slightly shorter branch of the route goes via Lockerbie and Eskrigg Nature Reserve. The two branches rejoin north of Annan to reach the Solway Firth at Newbiebarns.
The second edition contains several important route updates, four extra pages and many fresh photos, yet it is 20 grams lighter and more pocketable than the first.
This guidebook contains everything you need to plan and enjoy your trip:
detailed route description for walking from north to south
concise instructions for those wishing to walk south to north
summary of each section showing distance, terrain and food/drink stops
background on the history and economy of Annandale
seven pages of habitats and wildlife with superb images
planning information for transport and accommodation
nine pages of detailed mapping of the route at 1:44,000
lavishly illustrated, with over 110 colour photos
rucksack-friendly format, printed on rainproof paper.
As a keen lifelong walker, Roger Turnbull returned to his native Dumfriesshire after he retired. He lives on the Annandale Way, and was the original volunteer ranger from 2011. He worked to help maintain and improve the route and takes a special pride in the standard of its waymarking. After a long career in education and information technology, Jacquetta became interested in long-distance walking and trekking. After completing her first long walk, in 1998 she progressed to Mount Kilimanjaro, which she summited four times by different routes. She is a member of the Outdoor Writers and Photographers Guild and has won its Award for Excellence for the guidebook Trek to Everest. She has written or coauthored 26 guidebooks in the Rucksack Readers series that she founded.
