walk BRITAIN – the trusted guide that no walker leaves home without – has been newly revised and improved, and now features The Walker’s Toolkit containing all the latest countryside access information, FAQs and a directory of useful contacts. Plus, there are full-colour maps showing B&Bs along more than 60 of Britain’s favourite long distance paths, entertaining regional introductions and discount vouchers worth £10.
The 2006 edition of walk BRITAIN, sponsored by Millets, in shops in the new year, is an essential tool providing walkers with all the information they need before embarking on a walk in the British countryside. The renowned accommodation guide contains over 2,000 walker-friendly B&Bs, self-catering cottages, hostels, bunkhouses and campsites that are cross-referenced to nearby long distance paths and national parks. There are also listings of gear shops, luggage carriers, long distance paths and details of all local Ramblers Groups and guidebooks.
All the accommodation in walk BRITAIN is also featured on our online Accommodation Finder which searches accommodation along more than 100 long distance paths and is linked to our Groups Walks Finder detailing thousands of led walks nationwide.
Dan French, walk BRITAIN editor at the Ramblers’ Association said: “The guide has come a long way since it was first published in 1935 and is trusted by millions of visitors to the countryside. We’re delighted to introduce, this year, ‘The Walker’s Toolkit’ which is packed with helpful information in a handy self-contained section. Together with a new clearer, easier-to-use format and maps that now show locations of all B&Bs listed – we hope this will prove to be the most useful guide for walkers the Ramblers’ Association has ever published”.
walk BRITAIN is free to members of the Ramblers’ Association and can be purchased in all good book shops (ISBN 1-901184-68-4) or direct from our website at £5.99 (+ £1.70 p&p).
