Walk Perthshire by Perthshire Tourist Board. This guide features 45 scenic walks in Perth and Kinross, each with an accompanying, detailed map. The routes are varied and range from short strolls in and around towns and villages, through clearly marked forest walks and nature trails to easy hill walks and more strenuous mountain ascents. Helpful guidance is given on the difficulty of each route, equipment necessary and the availability of parking, picnic sites and public transport. The descriptions also include uncomplicated background information introducing the local history, ecology and geology of the area, and direct the walker to local hotel and shopping facilities and other places of interest. The guide has been designed with the practical needs of the walker in mind. They are easy to carry and small enough to fit into a jacket pocket. The spiral binding keeps the book open at the chosen page. The layout of the routes makes it unnecessary to turn pages while walking. |
