The National Parks Hall of Fame!
The new issue of Country Walking is out now – and it’s a celebration of the best of the very best!
We’ve asked senior rangers in each of Britain’s 15 national parks to nominate their favourite walks, and they’ve responded in style. From the most distinctive mountain in the Trossachs to the deep cleaves of Exmoor, from two monumental stone stacks off the Pembrokeshire Coast to a little-known route up Yorkshire Dales’ favourite Ingleborough, and the Snowdonia peak that should be a classic, this is the inside story on the walks that make our national parks so special.
Each route comes with a map and full description of how to try it yourself, along with some very personal recollections from the rangers who love it.
