Summary

Guidebook to 40 walks, from 3 to 11 miles, exploring the Lune Valley and Howgill Fells, some of the most unspoilt countryside in north west England. Set mainly within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, and the AONBs of Bowland and Arnside and Silverdale, the walking is hugely rewarding, near the centres of Sedbergh, Kendal and Lancaster.

The Lune Valley and Howgills: 40 scenic fell, river and woodland walks by Dennis Kelsall

A guidebook to 40 day walks in and around the valley of the River Lune, which wends its way between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District National Parks. From riverside paths to fell-tops and fields, there are walks for all abilities.

The walks range in length from 518km (311 miles) and can be enjoyed in between 1 and 6 hours. They are arranged geographically, following the Lune as it flows from near Kirkby Stephen in Cumbria, around the Howgill Fells and downstream towards its mouth on Morecambe Bay, Lancashire.

  • 1:50,000 OS maps included for each walk
  • Sized to easily fit in a jacket pocket
  • GPX files available to download
  • Refreshment and public transport options are given for each walk
  • Information given on local geology and wildlife

About Dennis Kelsall

Dennis and Jan Kelsall have long held a passion for countryside and hill walking. Since their first Cicerone title was published in 1995, they have written, contributed and illustrated over 50 guides to some of Britain's most popular walking areas and have become regular contributors to various outdoor magazines. Their enjoyment of the countryside extends far beyond a love of fresh air, open spaces and scenery. Over the years Dennis and Jan have developed a wider interest in the environment, its geology and wildlife, as well as an enthusiasm for delving into local history, which so often provides clues to interpreting the landscape.
