About the Book

Adrian's Walk is an energising and energetic celebration of Britain's most popular outdoor pastime. £1 from every sale of the guide will be donated to The Edale Mountain rescue Team. The route takes you from the meandering and peaceful country lanes of the White Peaks; to single dirt tracks and strenuous uphill slogs in the Dark Peaks. The rewards are the exhilarating views and the feeling of absolute accomplishment. "My life what a walk, what a mini adventure we're about to go on, what a training session for the Pennine Way - Adrian's Walk to Hadrian's Wall. If you like hiking, like taking photos, if you like discovering what's around you whilst you're walking, then you're going to love this little guide and you're also going to love this 3 day 58 mile hike - obviously you can take longer." As the title suggests it's about roughin it in the Peaks. However during the walk/guide the author points out camp sites (with facilities), hotels, pubs with or without rooms, youth hostels and of course the all-important public toilets! So it's up to you how much roughin it you want to do. As you will see from Adrian's kit list at the back of the guide he's carrying his tent, stove, and sleeping bag. So his plan is to stop when he's tired, pitch his tent and sleep where he drops, taking only photos and leaving nothing behind but footprints. Adrian hopes you enjoy the walk as much as he did and remember you're not wandering aimlessly like a cloud. You're off on an awesome 58 mile (93 Kilometer sounds better) hike from Bakewell to Edale via some of the toughest terrain and most picturesque scenery in the Peaks and reward yourself with a pint or three at the end!!
About the Author: Roughin it in the Peaks.......with toilet paper of course. "It's about time someone organised a decent long distance hike in the midlands - can't wait" My life what a walk, what a mini adventure we're about to go on, what a training session for the Pennine Way - Adrian's Walk to Hadrian's Wall. If you like hiking, like taking photos, if you like discovering what's around you whilst you're walking, then you're going to love this little guide and you're also going to love this 3 day 58 mile hike - obviously you can take longer. Adrian's Walk is an energising and energetic celebration of Britain's most popular outdoor pastime. The route takes you from the meandering and peaceful country lanes of the White Peaks; to single dirt tracks and strenuous uphill slogs in the Dark Peaks. The rewards are the exhilarating views and the feeling of accomplishment. One of the things that I love about the Peak District is you never know what to expect. The terrain is as unpredictable as the weather, and it's often the weather that makes the terrain so unpredictable. Rain, fog, sleet, snow and glorious sunshine often in the same afternoon - am I sellin it well? Adrian's mass 3 day hiking challenge. Even though I absolutely love walking on my own I also love sharing the experience with others - like you. So once a year I thought it would be a great idea to meet up with likeminded outdoor enthusiasts and complete this walk as a group, the more the merrier. Obviously you've bought the guide so you don't have to wait for me. I then thought; why not make it a bit of a fundraiser to raise funds for Edale Mountain Rescue with an entry fee, event T-shirts and prizes for those raising the most amount of money. So let's do it - let's meet up soon. If you're up for it and want to help raise funds for a great organisation you'll find all the details at www.near-chesterfield-derbyshire.com/adrians-walk
