In and Around Glasgow

Published 30 April 2002
There is a great variety in Glasgow's 'dear green places', from formal parks such as Kelvingrove and Glasgow Green to less well-known nature trails and walkways, many with stunning views of the Clyde. Outside the city, but easily accessible by car or public transport, there are more challenging moorland and mountain routes. This new edition of one of the most popular titles in the "25 Walks" series brings the walker fully up-to-date with recently developed routes, as well as retaining the classic favourite walks which are a part of what makes Glasgow so special. The 25 Walks books are practical guides and attractive souvenirs. Written by experienced authors, they can be used with confidence. The carefully selected local walks are accompanied by easy-to-use maps and colour photographs.
