Opis

Adrian's Walk is an energising and energetic celebration of Britain's most popular outdoor pastime. 1 from every sale of the guide will be donated to The Edale Mountain rescue Team. The route takes you from the meandering and peaceful country lanes of the White Peaks; to single dirt tracks and strenuous uphill slogs in the Dark Peaks. The rewards are the exhilarating views and the feeling of absolute accomplishment. "My life what a walk, what a mini adventure we're about to go on, what a training session for the Pennine Way - Adrian's Walk to Hadrian's Wall. If you like hiking, like taking photos, if you like discovering what's around you whilst you're walking, then you're going to love this little guide and you're also going to love this 3 day 58 mile hike - obviously you can take longer." As the title suggests it's about roughin it in the Peaks. However during the walk/guide the author points out camp sites (with facilities), hotels, pubs with or without rooms, youth hostels and of course the all-important public toilets So it's up to you how much roughin it you want to do. As you will see from Adrian's kit list at the back of the guide he's carrying his tent, stove, and sleeping bag. So his plan is to stop when he's tired, pitch his tent and sleep where he drops, taking only photos and leaving nothing behind but footprints. Adrian hopes you enjoy the walk as much as he did and remember you're not wandering aimlessly like a cloud. You're off on an awesome 58 mile (93 Kilometer sounds better) hike from Bakewell to Edale via some of the toughest terrain and most picturesque scenery in the Peaks and reward yourself with a pint or three at the end "
