Book excerpt: The mountains of Britain are made up of the most varied rocks in the world. This stunning book details fifty routes on ridges that will lead the hill walker to new levels of freedom, peace, self-expression and indescribable beauty in the mountains of Snowdonia, the Lake Distict and the Scottish Highlands and Islands. Some of the ridges featured are famous, others less so: all are meticulously and magnificently photographed, with maps and realistic elevations (3D impressions), route descriptions and facts to provide comprehensively detailed walks. If you enjoy hill walking, or simply love mountains, this book is an indispensable source of inspiration and reference.
