The third and final guidebook book in the Short Walks in Lakeland trilogy, the series also covers walking routes in the South Lake District (book 1) and North Lake District (book 2).

This guide covers 50 walking routes around the Duddon Valley and the coast, Eskdale, Wasdale, Ennerdale and the coast, Lorton Vale, Buttermere and the north-west. The walks described are generally between 4 and 8 miles - enough to pleasantly fill a good half-day, and ideal for day visitors and family walkers.

Priority is given to the lower fells and dales, which include many worthwhile summits. Some of the walks are classics and well used. Others seek out lonely tracks which are still green and a joy to walk. Interesting features are pointed out along the way, whilst the specially drawn maps help with navigation.

The combination of detailed description and clear, easy-to-follow maps and evocative sketches makes this book ideal for anyone who wants to explore West Lakeland.
