The Pennine Bridleway: Derbyshire to the South Pennines (National Trail Guides)

by Mike Williams (Illustrator), SueViccars (Author)

Synopsis

The Pennine Bridleway, when complete, will run for some 250 miles (560km), and will be Britain's first purpose-built long-distance bridleway. This book covers the southernmost section of the Bridleway, the first to be opened. Starting in the heart of the Peak District, it runs north to the moors of the south Pennines, where it splits to form the 47-mile (75km) Mary Towneley Loop. Although it has been designed and built specifically to serve the needs of horse-riders and cyclists, it is expected that the trail will also be widely used by many walkers as it is easily accessible from the towns and cities of north-west England. This book is the complete guide to this section of the Bridleway. It contains:
