Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wales Coast Path offers an unparalleled opportunity to walk a nation's coastline in its entirety. Stretching 1400km (870 miles) from Chester to Chepstow, including Anglesey, the waymarked trail takes 2-3 months to complete but can easily be broken into shorter sections. The walking is generally not difficult, although there are occasional rugged sections, steep ascents and descents and more remote stretches with fewer facilities. Promising fantastic scenery and a unique insight into local history and culture, what better way to experience the diversity and beauty of Wales' captivating coastline? The route is presented in 57 stages, ranging from 16 to 32km, each featuring clear route description illustrated with 1:100,000 mapping, overview statistics and notes on the availability of accommodation, facilities and public transport links. You'll find plenty of helpful advice for planning your walk, plus background information on Welsh history, geology, plants, wildlife and local points of interest. A facilities table, Welsh glossary and useful contacts can be found in the appendices. Passing through the Snowdonia and Pembrokeshire Coast National Parks, as well as numerous AONBs and sections of Heritage Coast, the Wales Coast Path takes in seaside resorts, attractive fishing villages, sandy beaches, rocky coves and striking cliff coastline. Highlights include the picturesque Llyn and Gower peninsulas, 13th-century 'Iron Ring' castles and frequent opportunities for wildlife spotting. The route can be linked with Offa's Dyke Path National Trail (covered in a separate Cicerone guide) to complete a full circuit of Wales.

Book Synopsis Tales from the Big Trails by : Martyn Howe
Download or read book Tales from the Big Trails written by Martyn Howe and published by Vertebrate Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-02 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I am already planning the next adventure. The wanderlust that infected me has no cure.' It all started in Fishguard in the mid-1970s when, aged fifteen, Martyn Howe and a friend set off on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path armed with big rucksacks, borrowed boots, a Primus stove and a pint of paraffin, and a thirst for adventure. After repeating the route almost thirty years later, Martyn was inspired to walk every National Trail in England and Wales, plus the four Long-Distance Routes (now among the Great Trails) in Scotland. His 3,000-mile journey included treks along the South West Coast Path, the Pennine Way, the Cotswold Way and the West Highland Way. He finally achieved his ambition in 2016 when he arrived in Cromer in Norfolk, only to set a new goal of walking the England and Wales Coast Paths and the Scottish National Trail. In Tales from the Big Trails, Martyn vividly describes the diverse landscapes, wildlife, culture and heritage he encounters around the British Isles, and the physical and mental health benefits he derives from walking. He also celebrates the people who enrich his travels, including fellow long-distance hikers, tourists discovering Britain's charm, farmers working the land, and the friendly and eccentric owners of hostels, campsites and B&Bs. And when he is asked 'Why do you do it?', the answer is as simple as placing one foot in front of the other: 'It makes me happy.'

Book Synopsis The Arrow Closest to the Acorn by : Debby Lee Jagerman-Dungan
Download or read book The Arrow Closest to the Acorn written by Debby Lee Jagerman-Dungan and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was asked multiple times as I walked on England's longest National Trail, "What has been your favorite part?" It was easy to answer. "Every part, because the scenery changes with every mile, and each mile has something unique to offer." At 630 miles long, with an equivalent elevation gain and loss of climbing Mount Everest four times, with most of it running through National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the South West Coast Path traverses the most amazing and brilliant landscape I have ever seen. Walk along with me on my day-by-day, mostly solo, adventure as I discover what's over the next hillside, and what's around the next headland, on a path that continuously hugs an ever-changing, picturesque coastline. Travel with me as we visit timeless historical fishing villages, harbours, and churches. Meet great people, from authors, artists, poets, and actors, to fishermen and geologists, to all the many kind and helpful people I encountered along the way, to the new and great friends I made. Hike with me on the ups and downs of walking, literally of the ascents and descents of the many hills, and figuratively of the thoughts and emotions that I experienced. Learn some history of smuggling, the coastguard, lighthouses, and the South West Coast Path itself, and about the important industries of fishing, farming, and mining that I grew to appreciate. I introduce you to the varying coastal weather, from some of the hottest days in years, to gale force winds and downpours, and from days with light rain or gentle breezes, to the lovely, warm, sunny, perfect days that I just did not want to end. We sit and relax on beaches, and walk the hilltops where we observe the miles and miles of views behind and ahead - of where I had walked from, and where I was walking to. I share a few of my "record-breaking" occurrences, and my encounters with herds of cows, mountain goats, horses and sheep, and golf courses. I search for my ultimate location for a beach hut, and indulge in a few cream teas, other desserts and English food. I talk about influential books, important organizations, music, paintings, and connections with the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage walk I did in Spain. We walk along a coastline where the blues of the waters outline the browns, reds, and whites of the cliffs, and where sandy and rocky beaches outline the greens of the hillsides, headlands, and farmland. We hear crashing ocean waves, chirping birds, and complete silence. I describe the times I participated in local life with local people. I reveal some words of wisdom I obtained from others, and some I thought of myself. Each day/chapter of this book begins with a relevant quote, and ends with daily statistics, including mileage, hours, and the names of local pubs. I explain my trip planning, some logistical and essential information, and over 180 black and white photos accompany my stories. Find out the significance of my title, "The Arrow Closest To The Acorn," read about the life lessons I learned, and discover how I fell in love with each and every one of the 630 miles. Please join me (and my "purple shoes") as we celebrate my 50th birthday on an American woman's walking adventure on England's 630-mile South West Coast Path.

Book Synopsis Seaside Donkey : a Wayward Walk Around Wales by : Lucy Ridout
Download or read book Seaside Donkey : a Wayward Walk Around Wales written by Lucy Ridout and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hannah has never owned a creature larger or more lively than a stick insect, which might explain why she thinks that roaming round the thousand-mile circumference of Wales with a donkey will be me meditative and tranquil. It won't be of course. Hannah is an optimist, but frightened of the dark, the quiet, and above all, the responsibility. Chico is keen and strong, but wholly untrained and deeply unconvinced about Hannah. And Wale's epic coast path has 410 stiles and 783 kissing gates, each one unnavigable to a donkey. Seaside Donkey is a funny, refreshingly unsentimental, and often alarming story about mismatched companions, and the power of being bold and living simply. Chico's charming presence serves to break down barriers, sometimes literally and it turns out that being tethered to a donkey yields a surprising wealth of unsolicited wisdom, sometimes painful and always profound.

Book Synopsis A Course Called Scotland by : Tom Coyne
Download or read book A Course Called Scotland written by Tom Coyne and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * “One of the best golf books this century.” —Golf Digest Tom Coyne’s A Course Called Scotland is a heartfelt and humorous celebration of his quest to play golf on every links course in Scotland, the birthplace of the game he loves. For much of his adult life, bestselling author Tom Coyne has been chasing a golf ball around the globe. When he was in college, studying abroad in London, he entered the lottery for a prized tee time in Scotland, grabbing his clubs and jumping the train to St. Andrews as his friends partied in Amsterdam; later, he golfed the entirety of Ireland’s coastline, chased pros through the mini-tours, and attended grueling Qualifying Schools in Australia, Canada, and Latin America. Yet, as he watched the greats compete, he felt something was missing. Then one day a friend suggested he attempt to play every links course in Scotland and qualify for the greatest championship in golf. The result is A Course Called Scotland, “a fast-moving, insightful, often funny travelogue encompassing the width of much of the British Isles” (GolfWeek), including St. Andrews, Turnberry, Dornoch, Prestwick, Troon, and Carnoustie. With his signature blend of storytelling, humor, history, and insight, Coyne weaves together his “witty and charming” (Publishers Weekly) journey to more than 100 legendary courses in Scotland with compelling threads of golf history and insights into the contemporary home of golf. As he journeys Scotland in search of the game’s secrets, he discovers new and old friends, rediscovers the peace and power of the sport, and, most importantly, reaffirms the ultimate connection between the game and the soul. It is “a must-read” (Golf Advisor) rollicking love letter to Scotland and golf as no one has attempted it before.
