Walking is one of Britain's favourite leisure activities, and this guide features a variety of mapped walks to suit all abilities.

There’s something for all abilities, whether you fancy venturing up Paglesham Creek or a more leisurely walk along the delightful country town of Saffron Walden.

Every walk helpfully provides a summary of distance, time, gradient, level of difficulty, type of surface as well as details on access and landscape. Information on dog friendliness, parking, public toilets and places to stop for much needed refreshments are also given, together with  full colour maps and clear route directions.

For those with an interest in history and wildlife, you’ll enjoy a fascinating background read to each location, as well as other local points of interest.
