How to Use this Guidebook

The main feature of this guidebook is a continuous route description, illustrated with OS map extracts. Alternative routes for Days 5, 7 and 8 are described at the end of the main route descriptions, with further OS map extracts showing the variant sections of route in blue.

Waymarking and signposting on rights of way is usually quite good, but keep your eyes open for markers

Some daily stretches are longer than others, and there are long stretches without access to food, drink or accommodation. If a day’s walk seems too long, then check to see whether it can be broken halfway, whether accommodation is available, and whether public transport allows a detour off-route.

Even when facilities are mentioned, bear in mind that they are subject to change. Hotels and bed and breakfasts may not always be open, and they may not always have a bed available, so it is wise to book in advance.

Food and drink may not be available on long stretches, so think twice before passing a shop or pub, and be sure to read ahead to discover where the next ones are located.
