Walk Britain by Elise Downing is an inspirational collection of 90 walking routes accessible by public transport which can enable you to see the best of Great Britain in an environmentally friendly way.

The book is organised into easily accessible base locations throughout England, Scotland and Wales – simply choose where you want to stay or day-trip to and then pick your adventure. There are several walks from each base, ranging from relaxed shorter routes through to longer day walks, and working up to multi-day options if you want a bigger challenge.

Explore the rugged Cornish moorland and coastal trails around Penzance, traverse the trails of the Brecon Beacons stopping for a wild swim along the way, see the remote lochs and coastline of the Isle of Arran, or escape the crowds of London with a day trip to the Chilterns – Elise takes all the hassle out of planning your next adventure.

Each walk includes handy details to help with planning, including an Ordnance Survey overview map and public transport information, along with engaging text about what you’ll see on your walk and stunning photography of each location. GPX files for the routes are available to download to help you plan and navigate your adventures.
