Acting editor Nick Hallissey says:
"Whether you're feeling merry and bright, or ready to explode if you see another mince pie, this is the issue for you. We've combed Britain for the very best festive walks and had a whale of a time doing it. For instance, on our Bethlehem walk we followed a star, saw a shepherd (on a quad bike) and met a carpenter!
For the most magical time of the year, we've come up with a most magical issue. Why not stick a subscription in the stocking of someone you love? They get 13 issues of ideas and inspiration – and you get to read it over their shoulder…
Merry Christmas from me, Jenny, Andy, Millie and all the Country Walking team"
