  This guidebook of 50 short walks in the Lake District is the third in the Short Walks in Lakeland trilogy, covering the entire Lake District. This guidebook divides the west Lakeland region into five sections: Duddon Valley and the coast, Eskdale, Wasdale, Ennerdale and the coast, Lorton Vale, Buttermere and the north-west. The guide comprises 50 walks, generally between 4 and 8 miles, enough to fill a good half day or provide a leisurely full day, and ideal for day visitors or family walkers. It is not a high fell walking guide, although many worthwhile summits are included. Priority is given to the lower fells and dales. Interesting features are pointed out along the way, and the hand-drawn maps include relevant walk details. The combination of detailed description and clear, easy-to-follow maps and evocative sketches makes this book ideal for anyone who wants to explore Lakeland.
