Lanarkshire 40 Favourite Walks Guidebook

author: Keith Fergus
Roughly coinciding with the course of the river Clyde, the inland county of Lanarkshire stretches from the rolling Lowther Hills bordering Dumfriesshire to the southern edge of Glasgow, and extends north and east beyond the remarkable Antonine Wall, the Roman Empire's most northerly frontier. The county is also home to the unique 18th-century mill village of New Lanark, once powered by the thundering falls of the Clyde, as well as wonderfully remote hill country, densely wooded river gorges, peaceful lochs, magnificent parkland and vibrant nature reserves, all offering great opportunities for walkers of all abilities.

Each walk entry begins with at-a-glance details of distance, time, terrain, parking, and public transport access where available. Clear route-finding instructions are provided together with simple overview coloured sketch maps, but OS Explorer map sheet numbers are also provided. The text also includes brief notes on features of interest along the way and there are colour photographs throughout.

The walks are arranged into four geographical sections:
Upper Clydesdale
The Clyde and Avon Valleys
East Kilbride to Monklands
Cumbernauld to the Carron Valley
