Described here in nine day stages, from Hessle near Redcar to Filey, it links end-to-end with the Cleveland Way on the coast. Also described is the three-day, 80km (50 mile) Tabular Hills Walk, a Regional Trail that allows walkers to close the loop of the Cleveland Way and transform it into an enormous circular walk. The guidebook comes with a separate map booklet of 1:25,000 scale OS maps showing the full route of the Cleveland Way. The clear step-by-step route description links together with the map booklet at each stage along the Way, and the compact format is conveniently sized for slipping into a jacket pocket or the top of a rucksack.

For at få en timeout fra en alt for hektisk hverdag sætter Gitte Holtze ud på en vandring ad Hærvejen. Hun forventer at finde ro og stilhed, men ikke mere end det. Det viser sig, at Hærvejen med sine cirka 500 kilometer gennem Jylland er meget mere. Gitte fortæller om at gå langsomt gennem lommer af et Danmark, der lever stille og hengemt. Om tankevækkende møder med fremmede. Om glæden ved det enkle liv i en rygsæk. Om tyste nætter alene i en dansk natur meget større, end hun troede. Om en vandring, hvor hun på forunderlig vis hele tiden får det, hun har brug for. Og om hvordan hun skridt for skridt på sin vej nordpå slipper krav og hamsterræs og finder ro og klarhed. Udgivelsen er en storskrift-udgave til svagsynede i serien MAGNUMBØGER Lindhardt og Ringhof.

Shortlisted for the Edward Stanford Travel Book of the Year Award 2024Tim Hannigan undertakes an epic east-west journey on foot through his own homeland, from the woodlands of the Tamar Valley to the remote western region of Penwith.

Over the years, the Lord has taken WG Waltz's passion for hiking and photography and has turned it into a wonderful type of ministry where he is able to share his experiences on God's green earth with readers all over the world through social media, personal testimony, and now, through this devotional. Waltz's A Hiker's Perspective Through HIS Eyes artfully combines one man's many journeys to God's beautifully crafted natural masterpieces with scriptural reflection and prayer. What started out as Waltz wanting to share with others the beautiful sights the Lord has blessed us to see has now become a passion to also share His love with so many others through His beautiful creation. Behind every photograph is a story thoughtfully told by the Lord that suggests both the past and the future to come, and Waltz seeks to show us how to change our perspective so we may see the bigger picture. It is in nature that we can experience His presence so richly and unearth the lessons that His creation holds, and God has blessed us with senses so that we may fully experience the world around us that He so lovingly created. It's Waltz's hope that the words and photographs upon these pages bless you as deeply as they have blessed him, for what we don't see in these pictures is on the other side of the horizon. May God favor you and guide you through these days, weeks, and months to come.
Waldschneisen, Bäche, dichte Hecken, Wälle, Gräben und Bäume dienten in alten Zeiten als Grenzmarkierungen. Bis in das 17. Jahrhundert wurden an manchen Orten eigens dazu Bäume gepflanzt und mit einem Beil eine Kreuzmarkierung hineingetrieben. Es wurden Warttürme gebaut und Grenzsteine gesetzt. Über Jahrhunderte entstand eine feste Grenze zwischen der Grafschaft Dortmund und den Nachbarterritorien. Mit diesem Buch folgst Du der alten Grenzziehung und triffst auf alte Reste der fast vergessenen Grenzbefestigungen um Dortmund. Mache Dich auf zu einer Zeit- und Wanderreise über alte Landwehren zu Grenzsteinen. Sagenhaftes und Wahres begegnen Dir sowie so manch schräges Gemäuer. Grundlage dieses Wanderweges ist eine Karte von 1611, die der Chronist Detmar Mulher zeichnete. Lasse Dich durch eine grüne Kulturlandschaft führen und entdecke ganz nebenbei, wie schön Dortmund und sein Umland ist. Fotos, Skizzen und persönliche Schilderungen der Autorin komplettieren das Buch.
Year after year, the 500-mile trek across Spain known as the Camino de Santiago attracts pilgrims and adventurers from around the world. Some want to check off an item on their bucket list. Others are working through grief or making difficult decisions. Many are searching for deeper meaning in life. Kevin O'Brien walked the Camino to pray. Each day of the pilgrimage, he asked God to give provision and protection to every member of his family, and as he did, he could not help but reflect on the blessings- and even miracles- that God had already given. Seeds Planted is more than a journal of the Camino experience. It is a stunning reminder that God is good, and He cares about the details of our lives. In fact, He walks with us ... every step of the way.

"In Globetrotting, Duncan Minshull, the UK's 'laureate of walking,' brings together the work of more than fifty walker-writers who have traveled the world's seven continents by foot.

In the summer of 2019, the author and her twin sister, Marcia, began the Vezelay Route, a five-hundred mile trek dedicated to Mary Magdalene, which runs through south central France on the Camino de Santiago de Compostela. They walked from Vezelay to Nevers, hoping to return the next year to reach Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, the gate over the Pyrenees. In 2022, as the pandemic waned, the author returned to the Voie de Vezelay, seule, to walk it alone. It was a leap of faith, just as the Fool in the Tarot flung herself wildly off the precipice, her knapsack across her back. What transpires might spur you on to set out too. No more dilly-dallying. Just catch the magic and leap. Written with humor and humility, the author details, once more, her heroine's journey and pilgrimage on the Way of St.James. 23 full color oil paintings by the author, as well as photos and a map, illustrate the book.

Bradt's new guide to Orkney is written by experienced writer and journalist Mark Rowe, author of Bradt's hugely popular guide to the Outer Hebrides and something of a specialist in more remote parts of Scotland. Orkney comprises 70 islands, 19 inhabited, and the focus of this guide is the 13 major inhabited islands. Masses of background information is included, from geography and geology to art, architecture and archaeology, with significant coverage of wildlife, too, as well as all the practical details you could need: when to visit, suggested itineraries, public holidays and festivals, local culture, plus accommodation and where to eat and drink. Wildlife lovers, walkers, bird-watchers, beach lovers, archaeology enthusiasts, genealogists, foodies, couples seeking escape and cyclists are all catered for, and this is an ideal guide for those who travel simply with curious minds to discover far-flung places of great cultural, historical and wildlife interest. Orkney is extraordinary. Home to Skara Brae, the most important Stone-Age village in northern Europe, it is also the site of the Neolithic henge of the Ring of Brodgar and Maeshowe chambered tomb, the entrance to which is aligned with the setting sun on the winter solstice. In fact, Orkney has so many archaeological sites it has been designated Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site. Here, too, you'll find the Old Man of Hoy spectacular 140m-high sea stack, Scapa Flow, scene of the dramatic scuttling of the German Fleet in 1919, and Marwick Head nature reserve, the definitive wildlife location, dramatically perched on cliffs and a wonder-world for bird lovers. The archipelago also offers the world's shortest scheduled commercial flight - just two minutes, between Westray and Papa Westray - and is the location of Scotland's only wine festival and the UK's most northerly distillery. Food lovers won't be disappointed with an astonishing number of local food outlets and family producers.
