Climbing Down

Selected as Travel Book of the Week in The Guardian, Climbing Down guides us through long distance walks in the Scottish, Welsh and English hills in manageable chunks.

With eight long and appealing British rural walks, each illustrated by pen and ink drawings, reading Climbing Down is like actually spending a day on the hill with Graham himself. Now the victim of a dodgy hip, Wilson breaks each walk in to manageable sections; ‘little big walks’. The walks include an alternative Snowdon Horseshoe, the Yorkshire Centurion and a Scottish Coast to Coast.
