Walking on Dartmoor

by John Earle

A guide to 43 day walks in the Dartmoor National Park and surrounding area, this is a full-colour new edition of the original popular Cicerone guide to Dartmoor, an area described as the last great wilderness of England. It is an excellent introduction to the moor and the national park. In order to make using this guide as easy as possible the walks have been grouped into four large areas of The South Moor; Widecombe Walks; The North East Moor; and The North West Moor. Most of the walks are circular and have been graded according to length (short, medium or long) and difficulty (easy, moderate and hard). The guide contains full-colour maps and photographs to the 43 routes. There are also outline suggestions for five longer routes on Dartmoor.

Good lessons on geology, also easy to understand explanations of mans activities over the centuries. Useful reference book for my favourite wild space

[Tarquilla · Rating 4 out of 5]

A good little book and a handy size to fit in the map case. Full of interesting ideas for walks, clear descriptions and curious tales from the moors.
