Walking is one of Britain's favorite pastimes, and the new 15 Great Walks series offers something different - with a view to helping more and more people to get walking. Instead of all short walks or all long walks, these guides are designed with a range of lengths - starting with walk one at 2 miles and finishing at walk fifteen at 15 miles.

The 15 Great Walks series feature all the information needed to help new walkers get out into the countryside; detailed yet easy-to-read hand-drawn maps showing the routes, clear information with all the important facts, photographs showing key points and route directions which tell the story of the walk - and all written in plain language by walking expert Andrew White, the presenter and producer of the TV series Walks Around Britain. This guidebook takes in fifteen great walks not just in the Snowdonia National Park, but also in North Wales as a whole - including the island of Anglesey, and takes in walks through the countryside, along old railway lines, beside water, up hills and down valleys - but always with stunning views and interesting stories.

Hot on the success of Wilderness Weekends, one of the top selling guides in 2015, award-winning travel writer Phoebe Smith returns with more great outdoor experiences tailored not just for the hard-core wilderness enthusiast but for novices and newbie hillwalkers alike. Take a friend, or take the kids - or both! - and climb one of Phoebe's favourite hills. There are 60 of them detailed in this easy-to-follow guide which champions a new easy-access approach to hillwalking. With 20 hills each in England, Wales and Scotland, from just 120 metres to a manageable 609 metres, and from Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands, there's bound to be a hill for you. 'When it comes to mountains society seems to be obsessed with height' says Phoebe Smith. 'But those who shun peaks based on measurement are truly missing out. Following on from the success of Wilderness Weekends, people are always asking me where they can take a friend, partner or young child that will help convince them that the outdoors - and hills - are worth the effort. Answering that need is this book, it's all about minimum effort for maximum results.' Each walk also includes tips on safety, kit, weather, walking responsibly, maps, tackling hills sensibly, and taking children, friends and reluctant walkers.
