One of Britain's classic trails, the walking is not arduous and the trail can comfortably be walked within a fortnight. This booklet of Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 Explorer maps has been designed for convenient use on the trail. It shows the full and up-to-date line of the National Trail, along with the relevant extract from the OS Explorer map legend. Conveniently sized for slipping into a jacket pocket or top of a rucksack, it comes in a clear PVC sleeve and provides all of the mapping you need to complete the trail. The iconic earthwork of Offa's Dyke, the longest linear earthwork in Britain, is a defining feature of the Welsh borders. The long-distance path named after it offers an unforgettable journey between the Severn estuary and the Irish Sea, contouring above the Wye and Dee, visiting hillforts and Norman castles and exploring the hidden heritage of the Marches. An accompanying Cicerone guidebook – Offa's Dyke Path / 9781852847760 – describes the full route with lots of other practical planning and background information, for those who prefer a written guide.

  • A Long Walk to Berwick
    A long walk to Berwick The Great Outdoors magazine, November 2016 I’d been a long time getting to Berwick: you could reckon it in hours, years or decades, depending where you started from. Hours: eight. That wasn’t bad for 23 miles from Wooler. Years: ten, since I’d set out from Land’s End with a vague plan, to walk 800 miles across England, a bit at a time. Decades: six and a bit. I never before had found the excuse to walk through Berwick-upon-Tweed, though I’d shot past it on the train often enough, and it seemed a nice sort of place to go to, with its border history, estuary location and recently-ended war with Russia. The vagueness of my plan to cross England was very much the point. That unholy trinity of work, family and finance meant that opportunities to get into the great outdoors from my London home were all too limited, essentially just one short break a year, everything else just local lowland walking. I’d got frustrated with cherry-picking different bits of the nation each year – the North Devon Coast one time, the Black Mountains another, say. I was the sort of guy who needed a plan, one that involved a nice B&B at the end of the day. I didn’t do spartan. And that plan, before England, was Wales, starting 2002. I’d walked Offa’s Dyke Path a few years before, and it came to me that finding and walking a different, wilder, hillier line across that grand little nation might be fun.
