North York Moors

by Paul Hannon

Published 31 March 1995

This new title is one of the first two in an updated series of Paul Hannon's `Short Scenic Walks' guidebooks. The principle feature is that all walks are less than five miles in length, offering a perfect half day's stroll for families, casual walkers and all who want to enjoy a leisurely exploration of Britain's outstanding country landscapes. A range of enhancements include a wider geographical spread, in this case featuring the entire North York Moors National Park.

The walks include such iconic landmarks as Robin Hood's Bay, Rievaulx Abbey, Goathland, Farndale, Roseberry Topping and the White Horse of Kilburn.

In addition to being more visually appealing than their predecessors, with a more modern house style, this new series offers 30 walks rather than 20, and these more substantial books feature a full spine rather than wire-stitched binding. Over 30 colour photographs depict features and landscapes along the routes.

Published at the same time is `Short Scenic Walks - Harrogate & Nidderdale', a merging of two popular titles which are now out of print. All these walks have been fully revised.

Dales Way

by Paul Hannon

Published January 2000

This is a brand new edition of one of the first guidebooks to this classic walk. "The Dales Way" is one of Britain's favourite long-distance walks, running from Ilkley in Wharfedale, through the Yorkshire Dales National Park to a delightful conclusion on the shores of Windermere in the Lake District National Park. At 80 miles in length and generally easy going, the "Dales Way" makes an ideal introduction to long-distance walking, being comfortably walkable within a week's holiday. It is well waymarked throughout and spends many miles on delectable riverbanks and passing through some archetypal Dales villages. An additional bonus is that each end of the route is accessible by rail. After a re-survey of the entire route in Spring 2012, numerous changes and improvements have been made to this already well-used guide, which now includes a stunning collection of more than 50 full colour photographs depicting the countless memorable features and landscapes along the way. The three link routes from Leeds, Bradford and Harrogate are also described.
Concise route descriptions are complemented by a wealth of background information, with an introductory section dealing with planning the walk, including useful addresses, contacts and essential services; also an extremely useful log section.
