Walking Orkney Guidebook

authors: Mary Welsh and Christine Isherwood
This comprehensive guide to exploring Orkney on foot has been regarded as the reference for many years. It includes 40 walks covering most of the archipelago. Readers can select from routes ranging from the simple stroll to the exhilarating high-level ridge walk. All walks are delightfully annotated with comments about the flora and fauna, with beautiful accompanying pen and ink illustrations of landscape, flora and fauna. The book also gives informative explanations of the history of the places described in the walks and provides information about the most interesting places to visit in the area.

Step by step navigation instructions are provided in numbered paragraphs and a box gives a summary of the type of walk, plus distance and estimated time. The clear hand drawn maps compliment the text and show the paragraph numbers.
